What to Know

The Marshall Thundering Herd will head out on the road to face off against the Miami (Ohio) RedHawks at 7 p.m. ET Thursday at John D. Millett Hall. Marshall won't have the home-court advantage, but they do enjoy a 5.5-point advantage in the spread.

The Thundering Herd made easy work of the Tennessee Tech Golden Eagles on Monday and carried off a 91-65 victory. The margin was wide but not a surprise since the spread was 16.5 points in Marshall's favor.

Meanwhile, Miami (Ohio) came up short against the Georgia Bulldogs on Monday, falling 77-70. One thing holding Miami (Ohio) back was the mediocre play of Ryan Mabrey, who did not have his best game: he finished with only eight points on 4-for-10 shooting in his 32 minutes on the court.

Marshall's win lifted them to 1-1 while Miami (Ohio)'s defeat dropped them down to 1-2. We'll see if Marshall can repeat their recent success or if the RedHawks bounce back and reverse their fortune.
