Exclamation Final Boise State 14 Marshall 7
Marshall is currently an 11 point road dog (Tuesday).

It's an improvement over yesterday when we opened as a 12.5 dog.

This would be a huge win for Marshall and CUSA. Having said that, I think we are still a year or two away from being an Access Bowl contender. Hope the guys prove me wrong and come game day I will be 100% convinced we are going to win lol

To the people on this board we are massive underdogs. Only two so far have picked Marshall in the lines in the sand thread.

Okay then.

If we have to lose I hope it's close.

Good luck Marshall - Boise is really tough especially on the blue field. I think we only beat them once in the WAC days and that was in Ruston. We could keep the games at home competitive but had lots of trouble up there as did just about everyone else. I look forward to watching on TV

We should be okay as long as they don’t have another one-armed db.

I just think we are still young and inexperienced at some key positions. I think we will get better as the year goes along. The one advantage we do have is they played Florida State while we played VMI. I'm sure our staff spent most of the off-season preparing for Boise while they spent the entire off season preparing for Florida State.

They also had to use their entire playbook while we played base offense/defense most of the game. I'm just not sure if those things will be enough for us to win.

QB- Sophomore
WR- Lots of FR and or inexperienced guys

LB- Inexperienced and big time loss losing Yulee
S- Inexperience

They are something like 26-1 in non conference games at home since 2006. Only loss was to Virginia in 2017. Also, the haven't lost to a non conference G5 school, home or away, for 10 years (16-0 during that time frame).

Their QB is a freshman....that should be a strength for us. In a year or two means if Doc is gone in a year or two.

The over/under is around 56.

I think we both go way above that. We need the following to happen to pull off this upset.

1. King and Knox go off. We slow the game down and control the tempo.

2. No more than two turnovers on our side.

3. Pass rush shows up.

4. Great special teams, no missed kicks or bad punts. Flip the field.

We were a contender Cato's SR year.

IG (our sophomore QB) will be a 3 year starter next year and a 4 year starter in two years. Just trying to be hopeful.

I thought that too. But sometimes the year you expect busts, and the year you least expect cashes in (the 2017 Marshall Basketball team for example).

Marshall will wear their Stomtroops tomorrow. Actually there was only 2 choices for this game it was going to be the Stomtrooper uniform (All white) or the Peapod uniform (All Green).

If you are a Marshall fan and you go back to the mid 90s then you understand that we owe Boise big time. In the 1994 IAA simis the score was Boise State 28 Marshall 24. It kept Marshall from going back to the National Title game. And during the game there was more than one questionable call and some spoty ball spotting.

Looking at that bracket makes me wonder just how weak IAA is now. These schools were in the bracket:

Idaho 9-3 #6
Middle Tennessee State 8-3-1 #16
Troy State 8-4 #10
North Texas 7-4-1 #18
Appalachian State 9-4 #17
Boise State 13-2 #3
Marshall 12-2 Tied for #1 with Youngstown State

That is 7 of the 16 playoff spots that went to future IA schools and if you want to get dirty with it and not count Idaho now that is still 1/3 of the bracket that is IA now.
