TROY, Ala. (AP) Gunnar Watson threw three touchdown passes to Chris Lewis and Kimani Vidal ran for 125 yards and a TD to help Troy beat South Alabama 28-10 Thursday night and extend the Trojans' win streak to six games.

Watson threw a long pass down the middle to Lewis, who high-pointed the ball at the 5 and then barreled through a would-be tackler into the end zone for a 47-yard touchdown with 11:30 left in the second quarter and Lewis made a one-hand grab at the pylon for 26-yard TD that capped a 12-play, 96-yard drive and gave Troy a 14-7 lead with 19 seconds remaining in the first half.

Vidal, on fourth-and-goal, scored on a 1-yard run that capped a 16-play, 75-yard drive that took nearly-9 minutes off the clock and made it 21-10 with 3:12 to play.
