The Marshall Thundering Herd, who have recently secured a victory over Georgia State and received a bye, are currently pursuing their third conference victory. Marshall’s offense generates an average of 383 yards per game with powerful performances from quarterbacks Braylon Braxton and Stone Earle and a formidable running game led by A.J. Turner. However, the defense has demonstrated vulnerability, particularly about the run. They allow an average of 26.3 points per game, while they score an average of 30.
Conversely, the UL Monroe Warhawks are determined to avenge their most recent loss to South Alabama. Their offense has encountered difficulties, with an average of only 295 yards per game, despite a promising start to the season. In the majority of their games, the defense has been their strongest asset, allowing 21 or fewer points. However, they experienced a setback last week, allowing up 526 yards.
With Marshall’s offensive potency and UL Monroe’s defensive resilience, the total points in this contest are expected to surpass 47. This prediction sets the stage for a high-scoring, action-packed game that will keep you engaged and excited throughout.
