Marshall men’s basketball heads to Louisiana Tech trying to snap funk

After suffering a second-half collapse against Southern Mississippi, Marshall enters a tough venue to snap a two-game funk.

The Thundering Herd (13-10 overall, 6-4 Conference USA) heads into Louisiana Tech’s Thomas Assembly Center, a difficult building for road teams. Tipoff is 7 p.m. Saturday.

Actually, the Bulldogs have lost twice at home this season, by a point each to Florida Gulf Coast and Texas-San Antonio. The former is not that bad, but the latter is inexplicable as the Roadrunners plunge down the conference standings.

It wasn’t that long ago — 13 months — that the Bulldogs carried a 39-game home winning streak.
