Charleston, WV (My Sportsbook) - Marshall quarterback Byron Leftwich has not practiced since he first injured his left shin on November 2 and is questionable for this Saturday's game at Ohio. The Heisman Trophy candidate did not play in last Tuesday's game against Miami-Ohio, but Stan Hill filled in admirably and scored the winning touchdown in a 36-34 victory. Leftwich was still on crutches on Monday, and Stan Hill is currently listed as the starting quarterback. The Thundering Herd are one-half game ahead of the Miami-Ohio RedHawks in the Mid-American East Division, and can win the division title and home field in the MAC conference championship on December 7 with a win against Ohio. Leftwich leads the nation in total offense, averaging 374 yards a game, and has tossed 19 touchdowns against seven interceptions. |
