TROY, Ala. – Troy is one of 20 overall schools and one of just three in the Group of Five with a pair of players selected to the Outland Trophy Watch List, released Tuesday morning. Left tackle Austin Stidham and defensive tackle Will Choloh both were selected to the watch list for the nation's top interior lineman.
The Outland Trophy is the third-oldest major college football award. Created in 1946 when Dr. John Outland presented the FWAA with a financial contribution to initiate the award, the Outland Trophy has been given to the best interior lineman in college football ever since.
