In terms of football the team that has led the way for thelast half decade has been Troy, often putting a scare into BCS teams, like they did in a three point loss to Oklahoma State last year. <\/p>\n
Sun Belt Conference 2011 – Odds to Win Conference<\/strong><\/p>\n Florida International 3\/1 The Trojans have been the big kids on the block, winning or sharing every title since 2006 and sending players to the pros in the process. This year some teams are threatening to end that run of supremacy in this conference that is overshadowed within their geographic footprint.<\/p>\n It is hard to argue with the aforementioned success of the Trojans. Even though I generally favour the underdog these guys have dominated their conference in somewhat impressive fashion over the past 5 seasons. Now people think there could be a changing of the guard but don\u2019t forget that Troy returns its QB (Corey Robinson) and top RB (Shawn Southward) from a team that averaged 34ppg last year. <\/p>\n Also, their defense which is always swarming with athletes, has 8 starters in total returning. <\/p>\n The run will eventually end, it has to, but I am not sure this is the year.
