HUNTINGTON, W.Va. – The Marshall Ticket Office has announced that Marshall Football’s Sept. 23 contest against Virginia Tech is officially sold out.

“We are super-grateful for this outcome – our first sellout of the 2023 season,” said Christian Spears, Marshall Director of Athletics. “We expect more of these and are planning for them.”

The game will be Marshall’s first home game against a Power Five opponent since meeting N.C. State in the 2018 season.

They play for them, they play for each other and they play for Marshall. That’s what makes us all part of it! Together, we cannot lose!”
