Ohio's Boo Jackson connected with Terrence McCrae on a 36-yard touchdown, cutting the lead to 24-23 with no time left. The Bobcats (1-3) elected to go for the two-point conversion, but Jackson's pass sailed through the back of the end zone to secure Marshall's win.

Jackson threw for 155 yards and one interception for Ohio, which lost for the sixth straight time against Marshall.
