What’s Going To Happen

Both teams are bowl eligible and both are out of the Conference USA East title hunt, and now they’re jockeying for position in the league’s bowl pecking order.

FIU is still buzzing after its stunning win over Miami, but can it break the current pattern? It’s gone win-loss-win-loss-win … and now it’s due for a loss.

Marshall is still deep in the league’s championship chase after a great five-game winning streak, but it clunked on the road at Charlotte. Win, and hope for FAU and WKU to lose, and play for the Conference USA title.

The Herd offensive line is playing well, the running game has been greater and the secondary has been a plus when it’s not dealing with the high-octane passing games.

FIU doesn’t have a high-octane passing game.

A bit inconsistent, the Golden Panthers have a nice defense – at times – and its offensive line is good at holding its own against the better pass rushes. Against Marshall on the road, though, the offense won’t do enough against the run. After getting hammered on by Charlotte, or over 256 rushing yards last week, MU will come out strong.
