Herd ends Bulldog win streak in 31-10 victory

The Marshall University football team mutually agreed that the 75 victims from the 1970 plane crash were with them against Louisiana Tech Friday night from the coincidences that lined up to propel the Herd to a 31-10 victory.

“It is definitely one of those things that shows they (the 75) are on our side,” redshirt sophomore running back Brenden Knox said when asked about the fumbled snap by Bulldog punter on the one-yard line.

The matchup started out without much action when both teams went three and out on their first drives. Then, the Bulldogs found the end zone first as junior running back Justin Henderson barreled in from five-yards out.
