Despite getting a victory against UNC-Greensboro, the Phoenix only shot 40% from the floor. Marshall is 2-0 SU with victories against some of the better teams in the country based on preseason rankings. The Thundering Herd have struggled controlling the paint but their offense has come alive in the second half of their first two games. This is their first home game of the season along with the better matchups and an offense that can take advantage of a poor perimeter defense from Elon.
