Herd football travels to Virginia for C-USA showdown

Marshall redshirt junior quarterback Alex Thomson prepares to take a snap under-center against MTSU in Saturday’s home loss--his first game for the Herd.

The Marshall University football team (3-2, 1-1 Conference USA) looks to add a second conference win Saturday at 3:30 p.m. against Old Dominion University (1-5, 0-3 C-USA) in Norfolk, Virginia.

“(ODU is) a dangerous team that we have to do a great job of going in there and being prepared to play,” Marshall head coach Doc Holliday said. “I know our team’s anxious to go down there and play well.”

This will be the fifth meeting between the two teams, and Marshall has a 3-1 advantage.
