They go into halftime with the lead 16-13. Why they didn't try go to the endzone one time instead of kicking the field goal towards the end of the half is really mind blowing. Marshall is currently trailing 27-24 with about 14 minutes left. The game is on ESPN2.
Noel Devine, true Freshmen, the boy that Deion Sanders took in and blew up in HS but his grades scared the big schools away, had two touchdowns today!
WVU pulled away in the end.
WVU- 48
Marshall- 23
Marshall ran out of gas with about 7 minutes left. Like everyone said Noel Devine came in and done a good job scoring his first 2 collegiate TD's and Slaton scored one for the final 3 scores of the game. Marshall held Slaton to 3 yards in the first half but then he blew up and had about 120 in the second half.
Watched most of this game and was surprised that Marshall's D contained Slaton and White and the rest of that high powered offense. I would say that Coach Rodriguez lit a spark under their hind ends and reminded them of who they were, and they took care of business. Congrats WVU.
