GRANT TRAYLORHUNTINGTON -- The location of Marshall's Conference USA Championship matchup with Rice was not officially announced until late Sunday evening.That's because Marshall and Rice each finished with 7-1 conference records and did not face each other in the regular season, which means the determining factor is the BCS rankings of both schools.In Conference USA's tiebreaker, the team with the higher BCS ranking is the host school for the Conference USA Championship.While the announcement remained up in the air well into Sunday evening, the groundwork was put out there by Marshall's players on Friday afternoon in an attempt to secure the championship game.
