Um, no. WTF does your post even say?
I've got you so rattled, you can't even make sense anymore, boy.

6-6 Clemson, in its first game with an all new coaching staff, new offensive and defensive schemes and a #25 BYU, at the time, in the questionable Coaches Poll?....and barely beat Clemson by 3 points? If Clemson would have a decent fieldgoal kicker the Herd would have lost. Could you imagine what a real top 10 team would have done to Clemson in a game like that?
Marshall, with its 113th rated schedule, was waaaaaaaaaay overrated.
Kudos being undefeated even if there were a couple speaker games against nobodies, but still....
Yes, thanks to weak schedules, the delusion is back.

Opponents strength of schedule,
Your strength of schedule was so weak you have to refer to your opponents' opponents to bolster your own strength of schedule. Yes Clemson played a good schedule in 1999 but Marshall did not. Were you so rattled you failed to remind me when the last time you beat WVU on the field? Let me answer that for you. Never. Little man never.
Yes because barely beating Clemson at their house is such an easy thing to do, says the 1999 national champs just one month later
#2 Bowden Bowl I - Florida State 17, Clemson 14 - Oct. 23, 1999
The star of the game offensively was All-American wide receiver Peter Warrick. The game marked the controversial return of the star wide receiver who had previously been suspended for two games as a result of the discount scandal at Dillard's. In his return, the explosive wideout caught 11 passes for 121 yards to lead the Seminole offense. Janikowski made three-of-five field goals including a decisive 39-yarder with 5:26 left to break a 14-14 tie. In addition to the win marking the first victory in the Bowden Bowl, it gave Bobby Bowden career victory No. 300. That FSU team went on to win the national championship, and the 17 points and three-point victory margin, were the smallest for Florida State in their wire-to-wire No. 1 national championship run.
Comparing a huge rivalry to Clemson and Marshall?
If Clemson's first game, with an all new staff and new offensive and defensive schemes, was against FSU? Lol!!!!!

#2 Bowden Bowl I - Florida State 17, Clemson 14 - Oct. 23, 1999
The first Bobby-Tommy Bowden Bowl came in 1999, a 17-14 victory for No. 1 Florida State at Clemson before a record crowd of 86,092. The 'Noles came back from a 14-3 deficit at the half thanks to a short touchdown run by Travis Minor, a two-point conversion from Chris Weinke to Dan Kendra, and a couple of field goals by Sebastian Janikowski.

Larry: Clemson fans still wonder why Tommy Bowden elected to kick a 41-yard field goal late instead of going for it on fourth-and-short. Tommy said in the aftermath he probably should've gone for it. Tay Cody got a piece of Tony Lazzara's attempt to preserve the Seminoles' march to the title.
I was at the game. Great atmosphere. Now their basketball games are pretty laidback in comparison.
"When ya can't beat'em, say you don't need to." -Herd fans
That is funny because only in Marshall's world is moral victories better than the real thing.
Truth hurts. Fact is I wouldn't trade a win vs WVU in 03 over a 6th ranked eventual big 12 champ. That's a much bigger win than beating WVU in any year of the series we played.
We must've been a very very good team according to what I'm reading about a 6-6 Clemson team!!
Another moral victory for "THE Moral Victory University"
Reality looks at the "W" column for Marshall, in games played against WVU and Reality sees a big fat zero.
I'll take reality you can have fantasy land.
Obviously no amount of facts and logic will sink in to your brain when all you want is to spin the argument in your favor.
At this point, you're looking like a fool, as usual. Don't worry, your fellow knuckle draggers on here will defend you, but don't think for a moment they believe you either.
You've been proven wrong and your argument debunked by myself and marine.
Example of a Moral Victory University:
"We get our asses kicked by the big boys and we are SO proud!" - WVu fans
15-21 speaks for itself
Proven wrong about what? Marshall barely beat a .500 team in its first game with an all new coaching staff, with all new offensive and defensive schemes and because it missed chip shot fieldgoals.
Somehow that gives MVU a "victory" over a team it is 0-12 against.
Congratulations.
A much better example would be fans of a team that is 0-12 against WVU are on a WVU board trying to convince themselves and WVU fans that Marshall won....
Lol!
Congratulations, MVU fans!
Hey stupid, no one really cares about your 0-12 argument. As stated I wouldn't trade a win vs KSU, Clemson, UofL, South Carolina for a win vs WVU. All of which are better and bigger named programs than you, why is that hard to figure out. Also, as I also stated the pollsters feel we don't need to beat you either. Three straight years with more votes also prove that.
Done went full retard again. How many votes did you get in the AP? 61 out 61 sports writers agreed. Zero. 14 point dogs, never beat us and still trying to talk smack. Full indeed.
Back to back to back.
How many votes did you get in the AP? I suppose that's a wash but in the other poll where did you stand?
Back to the twelfth as in 0-12. Congrats on your moral victory. If Vegas put a line on us this past year against you, we would have started out as 14 point favorites. I think we would beat you by 21 but since we don't play you, you can chalk up another moral victory. Marshall 88 moral victories verses only 12 real loses in the last 100 years. You guys are great.
More people care about 0-12 than "others receiving votes"....You and all other Herd fans would trade "others receiving votes" for just one win over WVU....
FACT.
Marshall would trade it all for one victory over WVU. They know it as everyone else knows it. WVU = Marshall's Super Bowl
MVU is 0-12 in its Super Bowls.
FACT.
You know they are lying when they say they'd rather take a win over a 6-6 Clemson team any day over WVU. Or a 1-10 South Carolina team that followed up that great year with an 0-11 record. Yep, I'm sure they'd take that over a win against WVU. :cool2:
how many votes did Ohio get? MTSU? Please tell me they got some votes or are you saying Marshall was the better team in 2015?
LOL. You know you've analyzed the shit out of a game to make it look good when you know Virginia was ranked 22 during the 2nd week of the year. They ended up 7-5 and unranked that year.
For the love of God it's pathetic.
shit, Ohio was close to back to back to back to back to back but Marshall lucked out and won in 2014
Pollsters recognize bad games, which is why you and GSU each had one vote. They obviously knew GSU had a bad game.
Ohio has owned marshall as of late. 4 out of 5. Sounds like you all have just had 4 bad games against them since marshall is obviously the best
Same could be said for you and Syracuse the last 3 seasons you were in the same conference, they beat you three in a row. Obviously they have a better program than you, obviously
