The read

Conference home dog sitting right on the 3 under the Tuesday night lights in Huntington. That is the cfb_home_dog spot, and the Herd at 0-2 in league play is exactly where the market sells low.
South Alabama is coming off a 56-49 track meet at Arkansas State and gives up 34.5 a game, 12th in the Sun Belt. Both teams had 10+ days to prep, so nobody is walking in on fumes.
Marshall coughed it up six times against Coastal and still has a three-man QB competition, so a sloppy start blows this up. A field goal loss still pushes, and the Herd get the full 3.
