Doug Smock: Herd scores 93 with misfiring offense?

Only at Marshall can you score 93 points and hear about legitimate problems with the offense.

That was the case Saturday night when the Thundering Herd gutted out a 93-89 victory over the Charlotte 49ers. It won’t help the Herd nab a first-round bye in the Conference USA tournament — those hopes are all but dashed — but it was good for the psyche.

It was good for this team to win despite not feeling it played well.

So what’s wrong with shooting 52.5 percent and scoring 93 points? Something has to go right, doesn’t it?
