Name the year and opponents the last time Marshall’s defense allowed 500 yards in back to back games.

Bonus - name the year and opponents the last time we gave up at least 30 points in back to back games.
 
Well, I know they gave up bunches of points in back to back to back losses to Akron, Cincinnati, and Pitt in 2016, but think they gave up a bunch of points the following year to stiffs FAU and FIU.

Guessing the more than 500 yards in back to back was those games in 2016 as well.

2 records set last night: The record for most 1st downs by an opponent (was 37, now 39) & a new record established by Rasheen Ali. 1st MU player ever to record both a rushing TD as well as a KO return for a TD in the same game.

2016 - the worst year of Marshall football that I have ever experienced - going back to 1969
 
With the late 2nd quarter touchdown the Herd trailed at the half. The Herd has lost the last 16 games it has trailed at the half.

Jim Donnan was a great first half coach and Bobby Pruett was a great second half coach. Wonder what their records were after being behind at the half?
