Yesterday Harris was at a press conference. This is what he said:
"It's everybody's first bowl win if we get it, not just for me. It's not all on my shoulders. We're going to go out there and try to fulfill that commitment we made when we first came to UTSA."
4 point line drop? Total down to 47?
@cowboysfan4romo
No way he not playing
win or lose, I’ll have tears coming down my eyes because it’s my last time playing in a UTSA uniform,” Harris said. “I’ve just been here for so long and all the struggles that we’ve been through to have the success we had the last couple seasons, it just means a lot.”
Harris not playing is the only reason i can think of for it to drop like it is.
Don't understand why he wouldn't play after no indication by him or the team that playing was in doubt. Frank Harris is a legend at UTSA and they've never won a bowl game, it's almost inconceivable he wouldn't play even if he did have an injury, just so he could be in position to win the bowl game
When you read between the lines of what he said and now add the line move he is obviously not playing.
Josh McCowns son or Eddie Lee Marburger will start, if it's the former I'm still gonna take UTSA at the lower line.
Marshall is in disarray and has no offense. UTSA still has some big fast WRs and will really want a bowl win.
They played Tulane in their title game had 5 turnovers. Last year they played Troy in their bowl had 5 turnovers. With Harris in there.
Both those teams are miles better than Marshall, 2 of the most solid G5 programs you could come up with. Marshall doesn't get many takeaways. With all their opt outs plus no offensive coordinator for a team with no offense anyway I am happy to lay 7.5 i dont think we'll get 7.
This wil be like the ODU game but they wont allow a comeback like those idiots.
There is NO WAY IN HELL that Marshall has the 11th toughest schedule in the country. Christ just think that through once. You are telling me any team that played the majority of their games against the Sun Belt has a harder schedule than anyone in the SEC? But yes I agree with the point you are making in general.
Wow, from Covers' writeup:
I wouldn't want to run through a brick wall for Mr. Huff...
Marshall had to survive a five-game losing streak in order to clinch bowl eligibility, but the Thundering Herd aren't through the adversity just yet.
The program will turn to redshirt freshman quarterback Cole Pennington when Marshall takes on UTSA in the Frisco Bowl on Tuesday in Frisco, Texas.
Marshall (6-6) ended its skid by winning two of its last three games, including a 35-21 triumph over Arkansas State in the regular-season finale, to reach the important six-win plateau.
Starting quarterback Cam Fancher finished his season with 2,162 passing yards, 11 touchdowns, 11 interceptions and four rushing scores before entering the transfer portal. Marshall coach Charles Huff told a local TV station that Fancher's decision didn't surprise him since "there isn't a lot of money for NIL (at Marshall) and the fans hate him. The kid has been miserable."
Huff received blowback for the comments, including from Fancher's mother. 
"I was asked a question by a reporter and I inserted my opinion over facts about a situation, which ultimately created a little bit of a sandstorm," Huff said. "It was truly based on my opinion of a small minority of fans, and I actually generalized the entire fan base. That was wrong. I take full responsibility for that."
Fans may have been rankled by the coach's faux pas, but now they will get to root for the son of a program legend. Pennington's father is Chad Pennington, who parlayed a decorated career at Marshall into a long NFL career.
However, Cole Pennington had a 0-to-6 touchdown-to-interception ratio in three games filling in for Fancher this season.
