    SBNation's Bill Connelly 128-team season previews: Marshall from CUSA

    Personally, I'm hoping for 14-0 and a top ten ranking haha. But I see 9-10 regular season wins as being very attainable. UL, MTSU, and WKU at home, Pitt and USM on the road, are the toughest games on the schedule. Without a total collapse, we should win every other game, and at least two of those.

    Looks like the Big 12 will add 2 teams....Cincy has been prominently mentioned.....

    Wait wait, do some research first. Memphis - Huge market, great BB history (even without Calipari - missed NCAA or NIT 9times since 71/72 season), decent FB success recently (7 bowls since 03, great past two seasons). Houston - Huge market, great FB history (missed a bowl 3 times since 03...

    I prefer CUSA because I like the other schools more, and the non-Florida East teams are in driving distance. The only opponents I would like to have in the same conference are ECU and Cincy. And let's be realistic - it's only a matter of time until Cincy, UConn, Temple, Houston, and Memphis...

    Herd avenges loss, Thunders past 49ers.

    These next four games are going to be tough. ODU, MTSU, UAB, and LT are the top teams in the conference outside MU.

    Or cries of Wrong D'antoni! Or ridicule over Marshall Basketball coming back.

    Until the next round of realignment eats it alive, anyway.

    Basically. I personally like staying in CUSA better than going to the AAC - especially without Cincy. I vote we try to get ECU to come back instead! haha

    C-USA needs a makeover!

    If by awful teams, you're referring to LT (three straight regular season championships, one in WAC), ODU (Been to the NCAA 4 times and NIT twice since 2005), WKU (one sub-.500 season this century, 7 NCAA appearances with a trip to the Sweet Sixteen, and two NIT appearances in that time span...

    If the Big12, and by extension the AAC, were to expand by two teams, I would think that the AAC would follow their policy of being a "Power 6" conference (in their mind). That being the case, I would think they'd go after schools that have good basketball, and definitely after schools with good...

    2016 Schedule

    Regardless of their status of "decent" or "good," they're still a MAC team when we already have Akron on the schedule. I don't know how you feel, but I'm not particularly excited about the possibility of playing multiple MAC teams in OOC - even if they happened to be the best possible...

    2016 Schedule

    We've got Louisville, Pitt, and Akron on the schedule for next year in football, but we still have an open date. From what I can tell, UCF, Buffalo, and WMU are the only FBS schools with open dates in 2016 that we can schedule. Coastal Carolina, who are moving to FBS in 2017, also has open...

    #7 in FBS

    It's not just CUSA that has poor SOS, it's any G5 conference - particularly for teams doing well in those conferences. (All of the following data pulled from Sagarin 10/24) AAC SOS for their four best teams are 71 (Memphis), 100 (Navy), 111 (Temple), and 125 (Houston). Best two SOS are 30...

    #7 in FBS

    OU, WKU, and ECU are likely similar to our SOS. And wins are much more important than SOS.

    #7 in FBS

    This is something encouraging to look at (particularly for you whiners having trouble being happy about being 7-1). Since 2013, the year Marshall football righted ship, we are 30-6 (83.3%). That puts us at number 7 in FBS in that time span, behind FSU, OSU, MSU, Baylor, Bana, and Clemson. In...

    North Texas

    I know that I'm really looking forward to future seasons with Litton at the helm! This is exactly the way I like to see a new freshman QB - 6-0, mistakes and all!
