Hyperbole

Sensai Holtz has certainly been talking up the dangers of underestimating Marshall (1-8) this week. I'm glad to see he's not expecting an automatic W, but some of his assessments do seem a little over the top. The last lines from Charleston Daily Mail article sums it up pretty well:

"They have a very big offensive line and I think they have a couple of senior kickers who are really doing a nice job for them," Holtz said. "This is a very talented football team."

If Marshall could play as well as Holtz can talk, perhaps, the Herd wouldn't be 1-8.
