AFTER TWO weekends of Conference USA basketball play, there are two unbeaten-in-league teams.
One is Marshall, the other Middle Tennessee. The two collide Thursday in Murfreesboro. That’s an 8 p.m. tip, with Thundering Herd fans flocking to Facebook, of all places, to watch on beIN Sports.
The Blue Raiders (13-3, 3-0) aren’t ranked in the polls, but are 16th in the Rating Percentage Index. After wins last week over Old Dominion and Charlotte, Marshall (11-6, 4-0) has climbed to 81st.
This should be fun.
The contest stands to be as big a challenge as Ohio State and Pittsburgh, maybe even still-ranked Cincinnati.
