C-USA's New TV Partner
Exciting news that C-USA and the NFL Network have reached an agreement for tv coverage of 11 games starting in 2019.
Re: C-USA's New TV Partner
Yeah that is cool. Marshall going to be on?

Re: C-USA's New TV Partner
man, I been saying the same thing every since that move. I'm still scratching my head over that. marshall traveled awesome in the mac, you could drive to any game in a day. and they had so many better rivals there. the mac is very competitive and always knocks a few tier 1 teams off each season. I'm excited to hear of the new tv affiliation. it's just all of their away games are so far away now. whereas before you could travel to them driving. the league they are in now is interesting, but the natural rivals in the mac was much better in my opinion. it's like anytime a fledgling team moves to d1 they add them to c-usa, or the sunbelt.

Re: C-USA's New TV Partner
Given the "poor sister" image of the C-USA and cord cutting reducing the cable tv audience, any tv contract is better than no contract.
i agree Marshall screwed the pooch in leaving the MAC. Given the limited resources available in WV, Marshall football might be better served in the long run by dropping down to FCS 1AA status. That would at least give The Herd a chance to compete for a legitimate championship.

They don't need to drop. They do fine, would love to see them back in the MAC though. They do a good job with non conference schedules. Conference games are good but no conference rival.

Re: C-USA's New TV Partner
No NFL Network games this year. With Marshall having their own production I think this came to late for Marshall to make the change. I look for them to get at least one or two games starting in 2021. Also, did you see the announcement about the Army home and home series?

I disagree about no conference rival. WKU has become a bitter rivalry. They aren't just rivals, they hate each other.mattash wrote: Wed Jun 05, 2019 6:41 am They don't need to drop.

Yep. Really cool. Navy and Army are games I'm looking forward to. Pumped about the OU game being back too.purpleblood1 wrote: Wed Jun 05, 2019 1:21 pmNo NFL Network games this year.

Re: C-USA's New TV Partner
Those games are in a few years, this year they have VMI (home), Boise State (away), Ohio U (home), Cincinnati (home). I can't remember which year but they go to Notre Dame, plus VA Tech is coming to town.YOU'RE TIGER BAIT wrote: Thu Jun 06, 2019 7:37 am marshall plays army n navy boss , is that what you're saying. or army n navy games on the nfl network.

Re: C-USA's New TV Partner
Pennington and moss ran through the MAC. Freak of talents. But definetly big time contributors as to why the herd received heavy pressure to get out. Even with the superstars Toledo always seemed to give the herd a battle. Would have liked to have saw them stay in the MAC but is what it is now. The Marshall WKU rivalry is very very heated.

Re: C-USA's New TV Partner
I always liked the ''coal bowl'' wvu/marshall. they need to get that going again. too much local stuff there to not play that every year. they are playing teams like va. tech and nc state. keep the money is west virginny.

Re: C-USA's New TV Partner
the onlyest thing you gotta do to beat west virginny is score in the mid 70's and have 1 more point than them, at the buzzer, that conference hain't got no defense.
