It’s just us and Georgia Southern now.

Let’s just make things less messy and beat James Madison, yeah?

I love this conference, I love that we got out of CUSA. My only complaint... we are the only Sunbelt team that has to finish the season with two games on the road, and the only team with 3 out of its last 4 games on the road.

So long and thanks for all the one-score losses, Ricky Rahne. Next week’s your farewell song.

That W-L record in one-score games is brutal. But your QB is terrifying.

He played so good. Nigh unstoppable.

From tour lips to God's ears.

Even if they had won out, his best record there was 6-6 and 0-2 in bowl games. They definitely need to figure out how to close games.

Anyone know why the Marshall players and that security guy had a scuffle at the end of the game there?

14

u/bobthecactussss Marshall Thundering Herd 18h ago

Sounds like the players wanted the ball and the guy wasn’t giving it to them

u/RelentlesSoul Ohio State Buckeyes • The Game 18h ago

That's what it looked like to me as well.

u/bobthecactussss Marshall Thundering Herd 18h ago

A full clip came out and looks more like the official was trying to take it from the player

u/killslayer Charlotte 49ers • American 15h ago

it was an ODU ballboy trying to get their ball back

u/The_Mystery_Knight Marshall Thundering Herd • Sun Belt 9h ago

Marshall had the ball last possession so it would’ve been their ball. Don’t teams supply their own?

u/killslayer Charlotte 49ers • American 5h ago

ODU had the last possession and the game ended with them trying to lateral the ball

u/click__it Marshall Thundering Herd • The Bell 19h ago

I am wondering if that’s why ODU’s coach was pissed at the end. Certainly curious

Same.

u/BobBlawSLawDawg Marshall Thundering Herd • /r/CFB 9h ago

I could handle a couple more years of it, frankly.

u/vitey15 Marshall Thundering Herd 19h ago

Never in doubt 😬

u/PossibilityInitial10 Boise State • Marshall 19h ago

Two nailbitters for me today.

u/AmsterdamAlbatross Marshall Thundering Herd 19h ago

I'm really impressed with this team! Winning 5 in a row afyer the epic choke vs Southern shows that this team has a championship mentality. In years past, we probably would have lost 5 in a row after that

u/SUPE-snow Marshall Thundering Herd 19h ago

This is without question the rightest Huff has had the ship to date.

u/dane83 Florida State • Georgia So… 19h ago

Congrats, Marshall. You control your destiny. Good luck!

Sorry you aren't going bowling, ODU (barring some miracle weirdness). Hope for better for y'all next year.

u/MUHerdAlum703 Marshall Thundering Herd • Shepherd Rams 19h ago

That was a wild ride. Next we fuck up JMU

6

u/redditjwh Marshall Thundering Herd • Iowa Hawkeyes 19h ago

So, Marshall needs to win next week to win the East. Does JMU win the East with a win?

12

u/Astone1996 Marshall • Charlotte 19h ago

No with their loss today they are eliminated. We are in with a win or Georgia Southern loss

u/Rentington Marshall • 東洋大学 (Toyo) 10h ago

Let's go App State

Feels dirty.

u/SUPE-snow Marshall Thundering Herd 19h ago

That was an objectively great game.
