    Miami getting 19 from MARSHALL?

    Crazy, they return around the same amount of starters and were very similar teams last year. I could see this being 7 possibly, but 19????

    While the number of returning starters is nearly equal, the talent is not. Marshall returns one of the best QB's in CUSA. Miami must find a new QB. There has not been a lot of action on this game. After all, we are talking CUSA vs MAC.

    Marshall I believe is Phil Steele's top non-AQ team. Either that or they're his top surprise team, but I think it's non-AQ. It is a head scratcher because usually his top non-AQ team is at least a power of sorts.

    Marshall is going to be a BCS buster type team this year. Going to have a great year. Look for them to cover this number rather easily.

    If you think this line could be 7, you might re-think things....

    These guys couldn't stop a nosebleed last year. Memphis hung 28 on them, Western Carolina hung 24. If Miami gets to 20+, they will cover this game which is fairly likely

    It's at 20.5 half now. This seems to be too many points. Miami could win this game couldn't they?

    It would be shocking if Miami without Dysert were anywhere near where they were last season, IMO. Marshall has a big edge on offense in this game.
