C-USA Top 5: Marshall clear No. 1; ODU creeps into picture

[Harry]

Prior to the season, it was widely assumed that the West Division would be much better than the East in Conference USA. It appears that's not the case.

Marshall, Old Dominion, Middle Tennessee, UAB and Western Kentucky have all been mostly solid early on in the East. In the West, North Texas and Louisiana Tech have been extremely erratic great one week and terrible the next. Defending C-USA champion Rice hasn't won a game. UTEP and UTSA have been fairly consistent while new West member Southern Miss is trying to pick itself up off the mat with a 2-2 record.

The only thing I'm sure of this week is that Marshall is the clear No. 1.

I'm gonna be 2 miles from ODU's stadium when they play Marshall and I am really considering going. I think it might interfere with watching the UNT game though. I also don't know who I would root for in that game since half likes the underdog startup and the other half me wants Marshall to win out (except the CUSA championship game)

might be hard to get tickets to odu game...isn't every game already sold out?

i want marshall to lose...lose often...and lose big..i'm not a fan....

I want Marshall to run the table.I want them in the Peach Bowl. I do not want a American confrence team there.

Marshal needs to run the table and they need to play ECU-like team in a bowl game and they need to win that game bc CUSA needs positive perception.
