Dothan’s A.J. Pierce and his Troy defensive teammates have found success recently causing havoc in the backfield of opponents.
In the past three games – all wins by the Trojans – the defense has recorded 17 sacks and 29 tackles for loss. In the first three games, the unit had five sacks and 15 tackles for loss.“It’s a mentality,” Pierce said. “Like we go into every week – be prepared, be detailed, be hungry – and it’s like every play is a fight.

“Everybody's hungry on the team and everybody wants to get to the quarterback,” Jibunor said after the game. “We have a great defensive line. We have hungry guys up front. We want fear to be on the mind of the quarterback because it can get in his head and mess him up mentally.”“To watch your brother do something amazing helps the team come together,” Pierce said.
