In its second season under head coach Rick Tolley, the team compiled a 3\u20136 record and was outscored by a total of 202 to 138.[1] The team played its home games at Fairfield Stadium in Huntington, West Virginia.

All 75 people on board died. 37 of them were members of the football team. It was the worst single air tragedy in NCAA sports history. The tragedy was depicted in the movie We Are Marshall (2006) and the documentary film Marshall University: Ashes to Glory (2000).Table of ContentsSchedule[edit]Coaching staff[edit]See also[edit]References[edit]Schedule[edit]DateOpponentSiteResultAttendanceSourceSeptember 19Morehead StateW 17\u20137September 26at ToledoL 3\u201352October 3at XavierW 31\u201314October 10Miami (OH)Fairfield StadiumHuntington, WVL 12\u201319October 17LouisvilleFairfield StadiumHuntington, WVL 14\u201316October 24Western MichiganFairfield StadiumHuntington, WVL 3\u201334October 31at Bowling GreenL 24\u201326November 7Kent StateFairfield StadiumHuntington, WVW 20\u201317November 14at East CarolinaL 14\u2013178,711[2]November 21at OhioCancelled [3][4]1970 Marshall Thundering Herd football team rosterPlayersCoachesOffense       (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});after-content-x4Pos.#NameClassQB12Bob HarrisJrQB14Ted ShoebridgeJrQB20Rick LechJrRB22Art HarrisSoRB\/KR25Kevin GilmoreSrRB30Dickie CarterSrTE35Barry NashSoOL50Rick DardingerSrOL51Jim AdamsSrOL52Mike SwartleySoOL53Wes HickmanJrOL54Jim SlyJrC55Dennis FoleySoC59Allen SkeensSoG60Tom HowardJrOL61Mark AndrewsJrOL63Jack CrabtreeSoG67Mike BlakeSoOT71Bob PattersonJrOT73Jon CalvinSoOT76David DeBordSrWR80Dennis BlevinsJrWR82Jack RepasyJrWR86John YoungSoTE87Freddy WilsonSoDefensePos.#NameClassDB21Felix JordanSoDB25Nate RuffinJrDB27Roger ChildersSoDL31Willie BlufordJrRB33Joe HoodSoLB34Art ShannonJrLB35Dave CyrusSrDB40Larry SandersJrDB41Bobby HillSoDB42Tony BarileSoDB43Stuart CottrellSoDB44Richard TaglangJrDB45Gary MorganSoLB56Jerry StainbackSrDL62Tom ZborillJrDL64Greg FinnJrDL65Tom BrownSrLB68Larry BrownSrDL70Ed DeedsJrDL72Fred GaudetJrDL74Paul OdenSoDL75Robert Van HornSoDL77Eddie CarterSoDL79David WithersSoLB81Dave GriffithSrLB83Scotty ReeseJrDE84Pete NaputanoJrDE85Roger VanoverJrDE88Al SaylorSoSpecial teamsPos.#NameClassPK\/P23Marcelo LajtermanSoP32Richard BrautiganSoHead coachCoordinators\/assistant coachesLegend(C) Team captain(S) Suspended(I) Ineligible Injured RedshirtCoaching staff[edit]Rick Tolley \u2013 Head coachJim Moss \u2013 Offensive coordinatorRed Dawson \u2013 Defensive coordinatorDeke Brackett \u2013 Kicking GameAl Carelli, Jr. \u2013 Offensive lineMickey Jackson \u2013 BackfieldCarl Kokor \u2013 Defensive lineFrank Loria \u2013 Defensive backsSee also[edit]References[edit]     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});after-content-x4"},{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"https:\/\/wiki.edu.vn\/en\/wiki41\/#breadcrumbitem","name":"Enzyklop\u00e4die"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https:\/\/wiki.edu.vn\/en\/wiki41\/1970-marshall-thundering-herd-football-team\/#breadcrumbitem","name":"1970 Marshall Thundering Herd football team"}}]}]
