    Houston Cougars vs. Marshall Thundering Herd 8:00 ESPN2

    Hopefully this thread can help out all who want to touch this game...post your angle here.

    I am dead set on buying the Cougars back to 7.

    They are matched well, numbers-wise until it comes to the Herds pass defense, which is well below average, almost 100th in the nation, as opposed to a stellar air attack by the Cougars. The only advantage here is Marshall's home field, which hasn't been a factor.

    Houston is much better. Keep in mind, though, that the weather is going to be just above freezing tonight, with snow showers starting between 9 and 10 PM, most likely.

    No play for me.

    It'll be perfect football weather for the game tonight. The forecast is low 40s with an 8mph wind and a slight chance of rain. Heck I live in South Alabama and I played softball with short sleeves on last night when the temperature was I the upper 30s. Weather won't be a factor tonight!!!

    BOL!!!

    FREAK OUT!!!

    I'm hoping for a 2H backdoor cover.
