Tech's media department was quick to have a graphic showing Tech as divisional champs.
However, I have not seen anything on the Marshall game. I thought, as soon as we lost to ODU, it was a lock that Marshall would host. Am I missing something?

C-USA Championship at Marshall - Where are the Details?
Tech's media department was quick to have a graphic showing Tech as divisional champs.
However, I have not seen anything on the Marshall game. I thought, as soon as we lost to ODU, it was a lock that Marshall would host. Am I missing something?
Being in the military I trust you know the meaning of the term "Incoming!"
It will be official later today where the championship game is hosted. The athletic department is waiting until it's official.
I should have read more this morning. I now see that the location has not been finalized. I must be overexcited for more details.
I hear we are negotiating for a better conference championship game and have asked CUSA to give us 72 hours before we commit....
.that's fine as long as the opponent isn't ULM!Originally Posted by dawg80

Also the condition that somehow ULL feels we deliberately screw them over and all the bases are covered!
As you wait for word so do we at Marshall. With CUSA involved nothing is sacred! We thought we were hosting last year. Guess what? We went to Houston even though we finished higher than Rice. Go figure. BTW good luck to you guys when we face each other wherever that may be. With Tony Peterson on your staff (a Marshall guy) we know there should be plenty of offense. That is if our coaching staff can get our team up after the dismal defensive performance on Saturday against WKU.
The Marshall message board says it will be in Huntington, per the Marshall Football twitter feed.
ESPN.com shows the game at Marshall on ESPN2.
Funny, I was looking up driving directions on google maps to Marshall. I typed "Joan C. Edwards Stadium." When you zoom in on the stadium it is labeled "Joan C. Edwards Stadium - marshall thundering herd southern miss golden eagles"
Its official on the LA Tech Athletics facebook page that the game will be at Marshall.
And official on the CUSA website: http://www.conferenceusa.com/sports/...113014aaa.html
East Division champion Marshall will host West Division champion Louisiana Tech in the 2014 Conference USA Football Championship Game on Saturday, December 6. The Thundering Herd (7-1 in C-USA play, 11-1 overall) are in the game for the second straight year, while the Bulldogs (7-1 in C-USA, 8-4 overall) are in the contest for the first time in just their second year in the league. The 2014 C-USA Championship Game will be televised live on ESPN 2, beginning at Noon EST/11 a.m. CST.
I'm glad this game is early and doesn't conflict with our 6 PM home basketball game against Jackson State.
