Marshall gets its first FBS home victory of the season after defeating Appalachian State 28-21 in the annual ‘75’ game Saturday, Nov. 12.
Herd football head coach Charles Huff said that prior to the game, he told his team to make the ‘75’ proud.
“I took the pressure off the guys; I said whatever we do, just make sure when we walk off that field that the 75 are proud of how we played,” he said. “I think our herd brothers and sisters in heaven are proud of what we did tonight.”
Marshall struck first with an 80-yard opening drive that took 15 plays and six minutes, capped off by a one-yard Khalan Laborn touchdown run.
