Saturday’s game between WKU and Marshall in Huntington, West Virginia, will decide UTSA’s opponent in the title game. WKU has won six straight games and is 6-1 in league play, while Marshall has won five of its last six games to improve to 5-2 in conference play, including last week’s 49-28 win at Charlotte.
