Marshall senior Ryan Yurachek pulled off the almost-impossible on Saturday, scoring three touchdowns to keep The Herd neck-and-neck with the Eagles of Southern Miss.

In the end, however, a missed extra-point attempt –following Yurachek’s heroic third TD catch, a one-handed gem in the south end zone of Joan C. Edwards Stadium– was the difference in the game. Southern Miss left Huntington with the narrowest of wins, 28-27 on a sunny Saturday afternoon.
