AKRON, Ohio – Kaleb Barker accounted for four touchdowns and the Troy defense limited Akron to just 242 yards as the Trojans defeated the Zips 35-7 Saturday afternoon at Akron’s InfoCision Stadium.
“First time we were traveling in an environment we're not similar with. I thought our guys handled it great,” Troy head coach Chip Lindsey said. “They did an excellent job preparing all week. They came and really took care of business and I am really proud of them.”
Troy (2-1) broke the game open in the second quarter with a pair of touchdowns – a 2-yard pass from Barker to Khalil McClain and a 9-yard run by Barker – to start a run of 28-straight points by the Trojans to end the game.
