Marshall will have its hands full with Louisville quarterback Lamar Jackson, but he’s not the Herd’s only worry when MU hosts the No. 3-ranked Cardinals Saturday night.
HUNTINGTON — As game preparation has cranked up for a visit from third-ranked Louisville, Marshall is re-emphasizing defense, both on the front line and in the back end.
And why wouldn’t you, with a sudden Heisman Trophy front-runner in quarterback Lamar Jackson invading? After all, he just piled up 362 total yards and was responsible for five touchdowns against Florida State. He could befuddle the Thundering Herd’s young secondary and everybody else in green.
