Marshall vs UConn Myrtle Beach Bowl Prediction, Game Preview

Marshall and UConn are playing in the Myrtle Beach Bowl on Monday, December 19.

Marshall and UConn are playing in the Myrtle Beach Bowl. It's just the seventh bowl appearance in Uconn football's history. The game is on a Monday afternoon. The Myrlke Beach bowl is only in its third season. Appalachian State and North Texas won the inaugural game. Tulsa's 30-17 win over Old Dominion last year was entertaining. UMass' 2019 victory over U Mass was the lone win against an FBS team since the middle of the 2017 season, and it's 3-3 with the last win coming over South Carolina in 2009 PapaJohn.com Bowl, the only bowl between this and the 2010 Fiesta loss to Oklahoma was that loss.

Marshall is going to win the Myrtle Beach Bowl. The team's defense is very good, but the offense is not. UConn is last in the nation in yards per completion. Marshall is 6-0 when running for 200 yards or more.

UConn will win the Myrtle Beach Bowl. The running game should be able to slow the game down for UConn. Marshall's passing game isn't great and the O is miserable at converting drives into points.
