If your offense puts up 35 and 33 points on the road in back to back weeks, you’d think you picked up two wins. Sadly, it just hasn’t been the case this season. Blowing the lead to FIU, letting Charlotte look respectable, giving up 37 points to an ECU team that doesn’t have a sound offense, and then bookending those games with two games of 50+ points allowed just isn’t going to cut it. It really is odd looking at the 1-5 record, thinking it’s possible we could have been sitting at 6-0. I really feel bad for our players because I know they are giving it their best. Thankfully, we’ve got a home game stretch coming up, and I hope these kids get a good crowd, because they feed off of the fans. The 12th Monarchs could really be a difference maker, as silly as that sounds.

Afrer the VT game I had high hopes that if we came back with at least one win on this road stretch that we would have a respectable home field for Marshall. I doubt that will happen now. I'll still be there but I wouldn't doubt that we have an unspectacular crown this Saturday. I hope I'm wrong
