Tuesday, January 19th, 2010

The Marshall Thundering Herd football team has a schedule that’s varied but not the kind of variation you want to see in a team you’re rooting for to make it to the top. Still, all in all, the Thundering Herd has made some noise in more than a few venues including their own, on their quest to stampede their way to as many wins as possible. The season opened with Thundering Herd taking on Southern Illinois at home back at the beginning of September and they bolted through to a win 31-28. Virginia Tech was just as determine not to be defeated in the next game and the Thundering Herd went home empty-handed with a loss 52-10. In Memphis, Thundering Herd won 27-16 but the tables turned on them in the next game against East Carolina at home and they loss 21-17. Heading off to New Orleans, Tulane hosted the Thundering Herd and were rewarded with defeat 31-10. West Virginia won on their home turf against the Herd 24-7 but UAB couldn’t get past a few points and lost 27-7. Although they have just four more games before the Conference USA Championship event on December 5, the Thundering Herd can still live up to their name by winning the remaining games against UCF on November 1, Southern Miss on November 14, SMU on November 21 and UTEP on November 28. Fans are supportive and optimistic as are the players and coaches but the truth wears no disguise and for the Thundering Herd there’s truth in the belief that this team has not put forth it’s best game at all times. Darius Marshall, Martin Ward, Andre Booker, Terrell Edwards and Cody Slate are currently the top ranking players on the stats list. Darius is miles ahead with a rushing average of 136. 0 per game. In honor of the philanthropist Joan Edwards, this stadium was named the Joan C. Edwards Stadium. Built in 1991 with a seating capacity of 30,000, after two expansions, the capacity has grown to 55,000.

This semi-circular shaped stadium offers handicapped seating in sections 104, 105, 107, 108, 118, 122, 123 and 130. The band is situated next to section 130 and just in front of sections 225, 227, 229 and 236 so if you like the rip roaring sound, you’ll want to choose seating near these areas. The visiting team is given seating preference in section 101 and 103 and Marshall students congregate in sections 116, 117, 119, 121 and 221, 223 so expect plenty of school spirit from this area of the stadium.

Representing the University of Huntington in West Virginia, the Marshall Thundering Herd is a collective intercollegiate athletic team that competes in Conference USA, NCAA Division I. The Thundering Herd?s home base is the Joan C. Edwards Stadium. They parade in the color combination of kelly green and white, with Marco the Buffalo as their mascot. The Marshall Thundering Herd has won several conference titles, winning the first one way back in 1925. They have won the championships in 1928, 1931, 1937, 1988, 1994, 1996, 2002 and a grand slam win from 1998 to 2000. The 90?s was indeed a rich decade for the Thundering Herd. Not only have they won most of the conference titles, they have an impressive 115-25 win-lose stat in contrast to the 1970 program that they had. Many several factors contributed to the dismaying results of the team stats in that decade. It was in 1970 when a plane crashed and killed the entire Thundering Herd football team and was a complete tragedy for the families, friends, and fans of the victims. Aside from that, the university changed head coaches four times during that period. It proved to be a wrong move on their part since they capped off the decade with a dismal 23-83 finish for the decade. Though the Marshall Thundering Herd suffered from a great loss from the recent bout with East Carolina Pirates, the team didn?t lose hopes in bouncing back from humiliation. It really hurt the confidence of the team especially that the game ended with overtime and a score of 19-16. Other teams should definitely watch out for players Darius Marshall, Mario Harvey and Darius Passmore in the next few games. Marshall is a sophomore that has recorded his second straight 100 yard game, making it his 5th for the whole season during their last game. Harvey is on his career high with an impressive 15 tackles in their game with East Carolina Pirates. Passmore, on the other hand, has also recorded his 4th reception of the season during the same game. So far the games of the team this season is quite exciting. Their losses are just a few margins away, just like their last game with the East Carolina Pirates and a 23-21 loss with University of Alabama and Birmingham Blazers as well. Their wins are even more exciting since the win jumps from one team to another. Though they lost the game to their rivals, the team is definitely not out of the picture. Matter of fact, the Thundering Herd still ranks second currently in the East Division with 3-3 for the conference and 4-6 over all. They also rank 10th in total offense with an average of 325. 6 yards per game and 7th in total defense with 404. 5 yards per game. They also have currently pulled up a remarkable 25. 9 points per game and have become the 4th highest in the conference currently and the 68th in NCAA. The Marshall Thundering Herd is without a doubt, a team that deserves respect and recognition.
