Can Marshall go undefeated and unranked?

No undefeated (FBS) team will fail to land in the top 25. That said, Marshall will not go undefeated. (bold prediction. I know.)

 

[WhiteMamba]

They have a great shot at the non power 5s lone big 6 bowl game berth.

But if any other non power 5 goes unbeaten they won't get it.

Maybe even a one loss Fresno, Boise, Houston, or UCF gets in over undefeated Marshall.

Any team that goes undefeated will be ranked.

Right now, Marshall is 32nd in the AP Poll and 37th in the Coaches Poll.

I don't see Marshall stay off the rankings with 12-13 wins, with 7 and 12 spots from being ranked.

 

[pennstatenut]

I understand they will be. I guess I should've asked should they be with that schedule.

FS1 is drooling over that Nov 28 match up.

 

[nddulac]

Even with that schedule, they should be ranked if they run the table. Every time a team takes the field is an opportunity to mess it up. That's why ANY team that runs the table deserves to be ranked.

They almost all of their weak teams last season. Went into 3 OT @ Virginia Tech. Returning their star QB. I don't see why they shouldn't.

This sentence no verb.

You would think they would want to toughen the schedule.

LOL at acting like adding us wouldn't toughen up that pathetic schedule. Ohh and they have never beaten us, EVER.

 

[GoldRusher]

they have never beaten us, EVER.

Not even with Chad Pennington and Randy Moss on the field.

That said, I don't see them as a rival ect.. and I hope they pull it off. Good for them (and Doc ).

Damn espn still using "MTU".

Without any question they should not only be ranked, but ranked in the top 10, but they would need to really dominate there opponents to have a shot at the top 4.

 

[Lance Armstrong]

UTSA will beat them in the Conf USA title game.

 

[TexasExes98]

If Marshall goes undefeated, they'll be ranked in the top 25 for sure. Top ten? Hell no. Top 15? Hell No. Top 20. Maybe. That schedule is pathetic. More pathetic than Iowa's schedule and that's saying a lot. KU could go undefeated with Marshall's schedule. Think about that one for a minute.....

I've smoked some good stuff in my lifetime also so I will give you a pass for this.
