Marshall really struggled last season with a mark of 3-9 SU, 3-8 ATS. Lone victories included Morgan State and Florida Atlantic.

They allowed 200 or more YPG both running and passing and just not a good team. Their QB Litton returns as the starting signal caller, but much of the blame for last year's internal discord was from him. Until things turn around, we will follow the momentum of each team including that of Miami, Ohio who began last year going 0-6 SU then made the QB change to Ragland (17TD's/1 INT) and the Red Hawks finished the year 6-1 SU, ATS including a narrow miss in their Bowl game, a 17-16 loss (as a +14 underdog to an SEC team) Miss St.
Not only did they make it to a bowl game but they gained experience and 3 extra weeks of practice last December. They also have 17 returning starters including QB Ragland and over 80 returning lettermen, and this is one of the most experienced teams in the Nation.

I'm backing Miami-Ohio, who is well coached, with solid QB play and their momentum from last season as I believe these 2 teams are headed in opposite directions.
