When the final whistle blew in Hattiesburg this past Saturday, one thing was clear:
Marshall’s football season is over.
Okay, it’s not officially over. The Herd still have four more games left on the slate. But, at 2-6 overall, if the Thundering Herd lose one more game, they won’t have any shot of making a bowl game. That means they would have to run the table and win out, which is entirely possible. The problem? Big Green has to go on the road to face Old Dominion and Florida International, as well as face 6-2 Middle Tennessee and East Division-leader Western Kentucky to at home to close the year.
