Marshall has cashed just one ticket this month and just lost to Coastal Carolina as a favorite. These teams met earlier this month, and Old Dominion had its chances to win. In fact, Old Dominion had a 17-point lead in the second half, so it should have won. Potential revenge spot? Give me ODU and the points.
