Herd football hits road for first time in 2017
Herd linebacker Chase Hancock of Daniels, West Virginia.Marshall football travels for the first time this year as it heads to North Carolina State this Saturday. Kickoff is set for 6 p.m. and will also be shown live on ESPN 3.
The Thundering Herd has never beaten NC State, having a 0-3 all-time series record versus the Wolfpack. The last time these two teams met each other on the field, NC State won 33-16 in 1995.
Marshall head coach Doc Holliday said the Herd’s game against NC State will be yet another challenge.
“They are an excellent football team,” Holliday said. “A lot of people have them picked to win their side of the ACC (Atlantic
Coast Conference).”
