Marshall looks for conference win against biggest rival

The Marshall Thundering Herd will look to get back in the hunt for a conference championship this weekend when they go up against rival Southern Miss Saturday.

Marshall is coming off a heartbreaking loss last weekend against Charlotte that saw them do everything needed in order to win, but walk away empty handed due to untimely penalties. Southern Miss is coming off a bye week after facing and losing to one of the best teams in the nation, Louisiana State University.

Last year’s contest between the two teams was dominated by the Herd’s defense, which forced five turnovers on the way to a 31-10 victory.
