None of those players played in this game. Marshall was a upcoming powerhouse, until mark snyder took over the program, he drove it in the ground, and now Doc is trying to revive it. Marshall is still a well known brand, and when it starts winning again, it will be right back up there.
It's a little misleading to say Marshall is on the decline. They somehow lucked into a good pro quarterback and one of the best wide receivers of all time. They haven't been lucky since then.
Those final four downs were the worst play calling I've ever seen. You have the ball on the 2 yard line with 25 seconds left and no time outs. Why not start trying to throw to the endzone immediately? That way you get 3 or 4 chances. Instead they call a run up the middle, which if it fails kills most of your clock and costs 2 downs because you have to spike it. Then a pass to the sidelines? Why not pass to the endzone and then one more? The last play they called should have been the first.
ya, now i appreciate stan hill, he wasnt chad or byron but he was definitly better than morris or anyone currently..and i miss bradshaw but luckily he is doing great in nyc..i remember around 2003 we went something like 8-4 and i thought that was bad, now i will give anything to revisit those days
@p1q0 I guess those two players played for almost 20 years? lol.

Snyder was able to rally his troops by the end of the year, though, beating us badly, and then smacking the Sooners. What a strange season.

It's the absence of players like Moss, Pennington, and Leftwich

Marshall has now scheduled itself 5 bowl teams instead of 7. This year's schedule works tremendously in our favor.

Bernard Morris was a great athlete, but not a good qb. I just keep thinking he was going to break out, but it never happened.
Why do we play V Tech and WVU the same year? We are just begging for the losses. We need to playone or the other, if you ask me
