Matchup Analysis:

Tech is ranked in the top 20, but they did not look great in playing the only team they have faced so far. Still, Marshall has been killed in both of their losses and they are tough to take in this game with their lack of offensive firepower. Have to go with Marshall though, as Tech will run the ball eating up the clock and the Herd are at home.
