Recap

James Madison secured a solid road victory over Marshall, pulling away for a 35-23 win behind quarterback Alonza Barnett III's three touchdown passes. The Dukes maintained control throughout, with Barnett connecting on an 80-yard bomb to Jaylan Sanchez in the third quarter and a crucial 49-yard strike to Wayne Knight late in the fourth to seal the win. Despite Marshall's efforts to stay within striking distance, including three field goals from Lorcan Quinn, the Thundering Herd couldn't overcome James Madison's balanced offensive attack.
