Marshall football (3-1) has an opportunity on the road this Saturday to open conference play with a win against the Charlotte 49ers (0-5, 0-1) at Jerry Richardson Stadium.
The last time these two conference rivals met, the 49ers came away victorious in 2016, 27-24. The loss is not forgotten on the Marshall football players.
“I don’t think you rate one loss high or one loss lower than the other,” Marshall starting quarterback Chase Litton said. “It’s a loss. You take it on the chin, and you move on but you don’t forget it. I know the guys here from last year are pissed off.
