Coming off a 10-3 finish and a bowl win in St. Pete in 2015, Marshall announced its 2016 schedule earlier today. The Herd begins its 2016 campaign with a bye before welcoming in FCS opponent Morgan State for the home opener. Marshall will face the same teams in Conference USA play as it did last season, with the venue of each game flipping. Marshall has two Power 5 teams on its schedule this season, welcoming ACC member Louisville Sept. 24. The Herd makes its first road trip of the season Oct. 1 when it visits ACC member Pitt at Heinz Field.
