While the defense shined, the Marshall offense struggled to get much going outside of Khalan Laborn's running ability and Cam Fancher's speed outside of the pocket, posting just one player above a 75 PFF and two players above a 65 PFF in the Herd's 12-0 victory over Old Dominion Saturday.

A complete rundown of grades are below:

QUARTERBACK:

While Fancher struggled through the air as compared to the week prior against Coastal Carolina (just 13-of-25 for 89 yards with two picks against Old Dominion), the redshirt freshman's running ability was huge as Fancher notched 136 yards on 18 carries to notch 225 yards of total offense and help Marshall come away with the victory. Fancher posted a 60.3 PFF grade but his run PFF grade was a 70.3 -- the second-highest on the unit behind Laborn.

RUNNING BACKS:

Out of the backfield, the running back position easily performed the best of the entire offensive group, with Laborn coming up huge once again with 139 yards on 31 carries en route to easily posting the highest offensive PFF grade with a 79.5.

In doing so, Laborn notched the best running grade -- surprise, surprise -- with an 80.3 PFF mark and even posted the fourth-highest pass blocking mark at 73.4, ahead of starting offensive linemen Logan Osburn and Kendrick Sartor.

Ethan Payne (64.8 PFF) and A.J. Turner (63.3 PFF) also saw time in the contest.

WIDE RECEIVERS:

As a whole, the inconsistent season from the wideouts continued as the struggle to establish a complete passing game from the signal-calling position continues to hinder the Herd's offense.

EJ Horton led Marshall with four catches, but the Louisville, Ky. native had just 28 yards on those catches and posted a 59.7 overall PFF grade. Shadeed Ahmed notched the highest overall PFF mark of anybody in the receiving core at 69.2 PFF, but he only played in 12 snaps and had just one catch for 10 yards.

Three of the next four receivers on the PFF grade chart -- Stone Scarcelle, Bryan Robinson, and Caleb Coombs -- played in 16 combined plays and didn't record a catch while only grading out to PFF marks of 61, 60.1, and 59.7 respectively. The fourth, Charles Montgomery, caught two passes for 18 yards and only notched a 60.6 PFF grade.

Corey Gammage (57.7 PFF), Jayden Harrison (56.6 PFF), and Caleb McMillan (49.8 PFF) rounded out the receiving core with Gammage (two catches, 14 yards) being the only one of the trio to record at least one catch.

TIGHT ENDS:

The tight end room again underwhelmed and had the lowest grade of any offensive position group on the field, as Devin Miller and Stacey Marshall, Jr. posted PFF marks of 54.1 and 42.8, respectively. Both players had pass blocking PFF grades of 71.9 and 69.2, respectively but performed below average from a PFF grade standpoint in run blocking, with Marshall, Jr. posting a 52.4 and Miller a 50.1.

Miller caught a pass for seven yards as the only touch of the day for the tight end group.

OFFENSIVE LINEMEN:

Up front, the offensive line struggled as Dalton Tucker (61.2 PFF) and Kendrick Sartor (60.9 PFF) were the only players to grade above a 60 PFF on the entire offensive line.

Ethan Driskell (59.2 PFF), Logan Osburn (57.9 PFF) and Trent Holler (56.0 PFF) rounded out the performance of the offensive line. All five players played all 83 snaps in the contest.

If you can't keep your D1ck in your pants. Then learn to raise kids, which does not include social media 24/7!

I know he's on a one-year contract, but for fvck sake. That's a fireable loss. Hell, agreeing to play there on the first place is a fireable offense. Should have told him to come in this morning and clean out his shit, we're moving on.

Hurt foot. I am sure they discovered it being hurt and decided to sit him now had nothing to do with them locking up the division. He probably wasn't hurt before.

App a one point favorite in this one. They seem to have some issues somewhat similar to us with their offensive line being inconsistent and key guys being injured or not playing to their capability. It is 75 week and the guys usually bring it in that game. Their fan base is growing impatient with Clark it seems, and they are thinking that it might be time to end that experiment. I know Huff has his quirks and his deficiencies, but if they can somehow win this one, it's going to give the team and him an added boost to win one more in order to go bowling.

PS: You should probably take the under.

Mods feel free to delete if not allowed, but I wrote a book that may be of interest to some on this forum. It's called Way Out Wayne and it is a story about a fictional Pioneer football team that seems destined for a state championship until an on-field incident jeopardizes the team's dream season and throws a star player's life into chaos. It's a coming of age story with an Appalachian flavor. I enjoyed writing it a lot and am grateful to the many friends who have supported the project. Check it out. I appreciate your consideration.

What is wrong with those people. They guy needs to be in rehab.

Serious question here by the honorable MichiganHerd.

Why do you consider Stacey Abrams and Beto rock stars of the democratic party? They're losers, and have shown no ability to win a major election. But yet, you guys/chicks/slapdicks put them up on this pedestal and talk about them non-stop each election cycle.

Rebounding with a strong effort throughout the game after giving up 21 points in the first quarter against Coastal Carolina, the Marshall Thundering Herd defense consistently pounced on Old Dominion throughout the contest, holding the Monarchs to 209 yards of total offense -- and just 11 rushing -- in Marshall's 12-0 shutout victory.

Full grade breakdowns, by position, are below:

DEFENSIVE LINE:

As with much of the defense, the Herd didn't have a true standout but instead had a bunch of guys who brought a consistent effort to the table.

Emmanuel Balogun, who played 12 snaps in a reserve role on the line, posted the best overall grade of all defensive linemen by notching a 75.7 PFF. Balogun posted three tackles, a sack and a quarterback hurry, making his dozen snaps count in the process.

Elijah Alston (73.8 PFF) and Isaiah Gibson (73.7 PFF) nestled their way in behind Alston, playing in 31 and 21 snaps, respectively. Alston notched four tackles, a quarterback hit, a quarterback hurry and a batted ball while Gibson posted three quarterback hurries.

Koby Cumberlander (71.5 PFF) notched four tackles and a quarterback hit in 18 snaps, Damion Barber (69.4 PFF) notched a tackle in 11 plays, Owen Porter (66.8 PFF) posted four tackles, a quarterback sack, a quarterback hurry and two quarterback hits in 42 defensive appearances while Sam Burton (66.6 PFF) notched three stops and two quarterback hurries in 32 snaps.

Esisas Carpenter (65.7 PFF), Immanuel Bush (64.1 PFF), Anthony Watts (61.4 PFF) and TyQaze Leggs (60.4 PFF) rounded out a very solid performance from the defensive line, with the 11 defensive linemen who saw action combining to miss just two tackles as a group.

LINEBACKERS:

With Abraham Beauplan back in the lineup and playing in at least part of the contest, Marshall's linebacking core saw improvement with Beauplan picking up the highest overall grade of all linebackers at 78.1. Beauplan posted three tackles in 21 snaps, allowed just one reception for 15 yards in two targets, posted a pass breakup, and notched an interception for a 78.1 PFF grade -- the second best mark on the Marshall defense -- in 21 snaps.

Charlie Gray and Eli Neal also fared well in Marshall's shutout win, notching PFF grades of 72.2 and 71.1 in 40 and 54 plays, respectively. Gray led Marshall with eight tackles and posted a quarterback hit as well as a quarterback hurry, and while Gray was credited with allowing nine of 10 passes to be completed his way, those nine completions only went a total of 43 yards as No. 1 was consistently around the football all game.

Neal, meanwhile, received his high grade despite only making two tackles over the entire game. Neal did have a sack and did not allow a pass completion.

Jace Bobo (51.3 PFF) posted the lowest grade of the entire defense, but Bobo played in just eight snaps as well, which did not fair to end up damaging the Herd on the scoreboard.

DEFENSIVE BACKS:

In the defensive backfield, Daytione Smith, a player who saw his first significant time in the defensive backfield due to the absence of Isaiah Norman via injury, delivered in a big way by posting the best overall grade on the entire defense at 80.5 PFF.

Smith, who notched three tackles, posted the second-best tackling grade on the unit (79.0) and by allowing just one reception for three yards in two targets with a pass breakup, also posted the best coverage rating (80.2) on the defense in 26 plays.

Andre Sam, who played 38 snaps, notched a 76 PFF after garnering four tackles and a quarterback hurry while allowing just two receptions for seven yards with a pass breakup despite being targeted five times. Micah Abraham, who posted a 71.5 PFF grade, didn't allow a reception from his cornerback position and posted pass breakups both times he was targeted on the day.

E.J. Jackson (68.7 PFF) made two tackles and allowed just one completion in two pass attempts with a breakup, while Jadarius Green-McKnight (64.7 PFF), Kerion Martin (63.4 PFF), Joshua Bowers (62.3 PFF) and Steven Gilmore (61.4 PFF) rounded out the defensive secondary. Martin was second on the team in tackles, with six, while Green-McKnight allowed just one catch for two yards.

Glad we are out of the conference and good job big booty Judy!

I'm concerned about the green man. I didn't think he'd go into hiding before the upcoming election, but I've not heard from him in a long time. Plus, I miss being demeaned, humiliated, and called a liar in every one of his posts.

That is hard to do. THey have surpassed CA and NY. That is really hard to do. Sorry, Michigan, but your state is high in the rankings and I don't mean the wolverines.

But, election of Uncle Fester makes PA #1. Even worse than Oregon or Washington. Hell, even worse than Illinois.

Top Dumb States:

1)PA-Uncle Fester, Jerry Sandusky cover up, rampant cheating, can screw up an election like nobody else, tired of those bastards screwing it up
2)CA-Way to **** Up a Beautiful state.
3)Illinois-total shithole and has America's Afghanistan
4)Washington-Cool city there but let armed hippies take it over.
5)NY-What a city, but mass Exodus and crime and just plain stupid people that talk loud. They want to control the whole damn country.
6)Michigan-How do you reelect that dumb bitch Gov?
7)Maryland-Seems like a cool state but the lefties took it over
8)Mass-liberal haven
9)Oregon-West Coasters
10)New Jersey-Just Because

What is wrong with them? It's like the election commission went out and hired a bunch of morons from herdnation to run them.

They did what we didn’t last night beating a hapless Warren Wilson College (Swannoaha, NC) a NCAA Division III team 142 to 74 - a mild 68 point win. Obviously Queens College is D1 but.

Will we wear young thundering herd throwbacks this week?

I have always wanted us to do a helmet like this!

The nation is heading towards socialism nationally. Ruled by an elite class and more than half the country dependent on them. They are slaves to the masters. We have a dumb population by design. They control the education system from cradle to the grave.

Only way out now is for it to go jnto ruin and rebuild it.

It may not survive it.

So when Trump wanted them counted in 2020, they were thrown out in Florida and PA. Now, the absent mind wants to count them?

I have a better idea, Fetterman... Recite the A-B-C's in under 30 mins. for us. If you can we will count them!
(unpopular, insensitive statement)

I bet I can guess how this dumb woman votes.

This is what I am dealing with. These stupid morons.

RALEIGH, N.C. (FOX Carolina) - Police in Raleigh responded to a historic barbecue restaurant on Tuesday after a woman called 911 to report “pink meat.”

In the 911 call the woman, whose voice has been altered, said the meat she ordered from Clyde Cooper’s BBQ on South Wilmington Street was pink and she wanted it to be cooked longer or exchanged.

“They’re saying the meat is supposed to be pink,” the caller says, claiming she was denied a refund or trade for her order.

The barbecue restaurant, which has been in downtown Raleigh since 1938, took to social media to address the incident. Clyde Cooper’s said the owner and employees tried to explain to the woman that barbecue turns pink when it is smoked and even if it were cooked for longer, it would stay pink.

Clyde Cooper’s BBQ says they also gave the woman chicken when she was unhappy with the smoked pork.

“We had no idea she called the cops because, again, there was no real issue, everything seemed fine, and we all had a good laugh about someone not being willing to listen to reason and teaching about the smoke process,” Clyde Cooper’s BBQ wrote.

They said the woman gave them a one-star review after the incident.

Nfm

Not off to a great start Danny.
