That's a good point, banker. But I've never seen one (1) LA Tech fan (including myself) say LA Tech can't be beat. To the contrary, LA Tech was
4-8 last year, and we lost to an FCS team earlier this year. But LA Tech is also a "battle scarred" veteran now. We KNOW we can lose games because we have. And we also KNOW we can win games. And considering where we were last year, well our fans are just excited about the HUGE turnaround this season.
The biggest problem is, Marshall REALLY DOES HAVE one of the
weakest football schedules outside of Div III. You know it, I know it, and literally
everybody on this board knows it. It's the 900 lb gorilla in the room. Hell, the NATION knows it, and that's why it's reflected in Marshall's poor polling.
I want to see Marshall beat a quality football team. (It's the same thing I would want for LA Tech if the roles were reversed.) That really hasn't happened yet. That doesn't mean I don't respect Marshall's talent.....I've repeatedly said
I DO. But, it's just a crying shame that Marshall football in 2014 may go down in history as the BEST TEAM that nobody ever heard of because of poor OOC scheduling.
PS: (and yes, I know the story about the scheduling hiccup, but nobody really cares.)
