Marshall puts a seven-match winning streak on the line tonight when it plays host (!) to WVU.

It’s the first Herd-WVU match in Huntington since 2004, and pits a Marshall team that’s 12-2 against 10-4 WVU.

“We’re lucky enough where we do get this game on campus,” Jacobs said. “We go to West Virginia, they come back to us and we go to Charleston for a couple of years. I have no problem following some coaches before me, in their wisdom, when they say that it’s OK to make sure your team knows it’s more important, sometimes, to the people that support you.”
