The Tigers could win a game by a score of 28-26 or 30-29. Memphis played well on defense earlier this season in a 16-13 road loss at Conference USA foe UTEP.<\/p>\n<p>If Memphis can replicate that UTEP performance on the defensive side of the ball, all things are possible for the visitors from the state of Tennessee, as they go to Huntington, West Virginia, to take on Marshall.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Why To Bet On Marshall<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Coach Larry Porter\u2019s Memphis Tigers have been getting pounded like ground hamburger meat. The Tigers have been on the business end of 48-7, 56-0, 41-19, 56-17, and 50-14 beatdowns in their last six games.\u00a0 Meanwhile, Doc Holliday\u2019s Marshall squad has been on a relative roll, winning its last two games and going 3-3 in their last six after a 0-3 start to the season. <iframe allowtransparency='true' src='http:\/\/ff.connextra.com\/Bodog\/selector\/client?client=Bodog&#038;placement=Ext_RS_Sports_250x250&#038;cxt_aff_id=151627&#038;tclk=http:\/\/www.bodog.eu\/welcome\/151627\/' class=\"alignleft\" style=\"margin: 1px; border: 3px solid #FFFFFF;\" width='250' height='250' scrolling='no' frameborder='0' style='border-width:0'><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>The Thundering Herd figures to extend that modest winning streak to three games on Saturday.\u00a0 Quarterback Brian Anderson (165-of-291 passes for 1,668 yards and 14 touchdowns with 10 interceptions) threw for 304 yards and tossed three touchdown passes in last Saturday\u2019s 31-17 win over UAB.<\/p>\n<p>He should find the pickings even easier versus a Memphis secondary that has given up an eye-popping 30 touchdown passes this season.\u00a0 Anderson will look to his favorite targets, wideouts Aaron Dobson (36 catches, 578 yards, five touchdowns) and Antavious Wilson (29 catches, 342 yards, five touchdowns) often on Saturday.<\/p>\n<p>Marshall played the first half of this season in a fog, but ever since the middle of October, this team has picked up the pieces and gained a much-needed second wind.<\/p>\n<p>Over the long haul of a 12-game slate, there are multiple points at which a team can decide to change course and alter the flow of its season. Marshall was mired in a slump that showed no signs of abating, but the Thundering Herd clearly made a commitment to do better, and it\u2019s showing.<\/p>\n<p>To be realistic, the 16-12 win over UTEP, achieved on a late touchdown in the fourth quarter, probably gave this team the nudge it so desperately and clearly needed.<\/p>\n<p><strong>How The Game Will Play Out<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Memphis is simply awful, certainly one of the five worst teams in the United States from a conference other than the MAC or the Sun Belt, which are weaker than the nine other FBS leagues.
