Briefly looking at ESPN's predictions for each of Marshall's opponents as well as their specific game, things seem favorable for the Herd.
ESPN's Power Index projects that Marshall will finish 8-4, but their individual game predictor has Marshall finishing 11-1 (which is somewhat confusing).
Here's a look at the Power Index's projections for each of our opponents.
Albany - N/A ( 92.1% Marshall W )
ECU - 6-6 ( 55.1% Marshall W )
VT - 5-7 ( 60.3% Marshall W )
ODU - 4-8 ( 86.9% Marshall W )
NC State - 7-5 ( 70.8% Marshall L )
Ga State - 6-6 ( 59.5% Marshall W )
JMU - 7-5 ( 70.9% Marshall W )
Coastal Carolina - 7-5 ( 61.0% Marshall W )
Appy State - 7-5 ( 58.1% Marshall W )
Ga Southern - 6-6 ( 73.7% Marshall W )
South Alabama - 6-6 ( 59.6% Marshall W )
Arkansas St - 6-6 ( 76.7% Marshall W )
This of course means nothing in the grand scheme of things, but offers interesting banter.
