East Carolina (6-4, 5-1 C-USA) at Marshall (1-8, 1-4)4:30 p.m. today, Joan C. Edwards Stadium (38,019, FieldTurf), Huntington• TV: none locally• Line: ECU by 7• Series: ECU leads 6-2• Last meeting: ECU 33, Marshall 20, Nov. 11, 2006 at Greenville, N.C.• Tickets: Plenty available, $22-32.• Weather: Mostly clear, 48 degrees at kickoff.On the spot• Byron Tinker, Marshall defensive tackle: ECU’s Skip Holtz became the first opposing coach to mention Tinker by name, so we’ll list the Herd defense’s lone starting senior this week. He won’t be an all-conference selection but he does have six tackles for loss this season and almost never gets a snap off. But after the team’s third sackless game of the year, the Herd front really needs to turn up the heat on the quarterback.
