Anyone watching the game? I notice Marshalls coach wearing throwback Marshall attire. Is that logo on his hat from the 70s or 80s by chance?

Watched most of the game. Didn't really notice the coaches attire. I have noticed in past games that when Doc has a mask on he looks a lot like Bob Pruett . . . has that same expressive forehead and look around the eyes.

Marshall's QB, Grant Wells, has not been as effective in the last three games. I'm wondering if it's because defenses have found his tendencies and have compensated. But, that can't be the whole story because he's made some really bad passes to wide open receivers recently. He's just a freshman, so I think he'll get it together and not pull a TT.

I'm surprised the UB won without Patterson. But, hats of to the Bulls. They did what they had to do in crunch time. MAC now 1-0 in bowls and C-USA, I think, is 0-4 (from memory, too lazy to look it up) as I wait for our Chinese take out for dinner. We celebrate Christmas on Christmas Eve, so Christmas Day is always a little anticlimactic at our house. We had a big meal last night but with many fewer family members in attendance, for obvious reasons.

Merry Christmas to all, and a Happy, Prosperous and Covid19-free New Year!

Marsall is a second tier MAC team masquerading as a real football power. Hillbilly prom with a scandal at the dance. I am against ever playing them in anything. Legitimizes their renegade program and their illegitimate lust for athletic promise. Shut them down, now!!!

This coming from someone who apparently lives in {deleted pejorative adjective} Youngstown is priceless!

Their fans certainly are among the worst in mid-major football.

I cheer against only one team harder than Marshall.
