Re: Whats going on in your dynasty?
Year 7 with Marshall.
Year 6 had been a up and down year as 3 quarterbacks saw action. I had 2 Redshirt seniors(2 star coming into the program) who vied for most of the field time, but 6 games into the season I pulled one of them after he threw 7 INTs Vs. Notre Dame(Making his TD/Int ratio something like 10/24).
I replaced him with the other senior, and immediately saw improvement in the passing game, as this dude threw fo4 8 touchdowns and only 1 interception in 4 games. Greg McDaniel(QB #3) was a Redshirt Junior who saw limited playing time mostly as a op up qb.
I came off a 11-3 record with a win over Mississippi State in the Liberty Bowl. In the offseason I signed a 4 star scrambling quarterback, 4 star possession wide receiver, along with a host of other potential stars.
Expectations were high in 2015, and it started out with a bang with a 20-17 win over in state rival and #5 ranked West Virginia in the annual Friends of Coal Bowl. McDaniel thew for 2 touchdowns and ~250 yards in the win. This win vaulted The Herd to #15 in the national polls, and the Herd set their eyes on a possible BCS berth.
Unfortunately, things haven't went smoothly. My 2nd string QB(who is statistically better than my 1st string) went down with broken ribs in a 38-28 loss to UCF the next week.I should also mention my 1st string also got injured in this game, along with my 1st string HB...after they all went out, my offense died and UCF just out-gunned me. Next week wasn't so hot either as I lost to #5 Cincinnatti 35-17(3rd string QB...widlly inaccurate...currently 3/28 with 0 TDS and 5 ints..It got so bad I had to go to doing nothing but running the ball because it was better than nothing.)
However, I've rebounded quite nicely with wins over Tulsa, UAB, and Boston College(38-7, 41-16, and 37-10, respectively).
I'm currently sitting at 4-2(2-1 C USA) with my 1st string QB and HB back in the action. With them back, I am lighting up the scoreboards and I believe this offense will be hard to stop.
I'm already looking forward to 2016, haha.
