The Marshall University football team is just one of a few programs kicking off the 2020 college football season this weekend a little differently.
Due to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, it forced many college football teams to cancel, postpone and reschedule their seasons.
The Herd will be facing the Eastern Kentucky University Colonels Saturday, Sept. 5 at Joan C. Edwards Stadium.
Because of the constant changes and to assure the health and safety for all fans, players, coaches, personnel and media, face masks and social distancing of six feet will be required throughout the stadium. There will also be reduced capacity.
