MU sked offers a bit of everything

So how does Marshall’s 2007 schedule size up Thundering Herd fans? September is much more balanced compared to last year, but the Sept. 22 game at Cincinnati begins a three-game road stretch. Marshall gets five opponents with first-year coaches and four of the final six games are at Edwards Stadium. Overall, this is another tough schedule but a bowl bid is realistic. Of course we’ll all have a better idea following spring practice. Again, what are your thoughts on the schedule and how about spring drills? There was some solid spring practice back-and-forth on the previous blog and I’d like to continue it here. Thanks.
