College Football Week 10 Odds, Picks & Prediction: Marshall vs. Old Dominion

Marshall (-2.5) at Old Dominion

Old Dominion started 2-2 with a win over Virginia Tech - and a near-miss two-point loss to Virginia.

But in Game 5, stud ODU TE Zack Kuntz, a Penn State transfer and prime NFL prospect, was knocked out (the team finally confirmed earlier this week that Kuntz's injury is season-ending).

Since that time, ODU is 1-3, including consecutive losses to Georgia Southern and Georgia State. Kuntz's injury has hurt both ODU's running and passing games. That feels like a problem with Marshall's elite G5 defense coming to town. The Herd boast the No. 17 SP+ defense.

The Herd have gone 2-4 since the upset win over Notre Dame, seemingly falling off a cliff. But in those four losses, Marshall finished with a combined win expectancy of 209%. Which is to say that with normalized luck, the Herd would have been expected to win two of them.

If they had, there's no way that Marshall would be laying under a field goal here.

The pick: Marshall -2.5
