HUNTINGTON, W.Va. (AP) -- Cody Green threw his only touchdown
pass, a 4-yarder to Jordan James for the go-ahead score midway
through the fourth quarter, and Tulsa stopped Marshall on downs
twice in the fourth quarter to seal a 45-38 win Saturday.



The Golden Hurricane's quarterback connected with Thomas
Roberson on the two-point conversion to follow up his touchdown,
putting Tulsa (5-1, 3-0 Conference USA) up by seven with 8:25
remaining.



Then the Tulsa defense took over. Lowell Rose broke up a Rakeem
Cato pass on Tulsa's 16-yard line on fourth-and-5 to stall a
Thundering Herd (2-4, 1-1) drive with 3:32 left. Less than two
minutes later, Tulsa's Marco Nelson broke up another pass by
Cato on fourth-and-7 at the Golden Hurricane's 17 to stall
Marshall's final possession and seal the win.



Alex Singleton rushed for three touchdowns on 94 yards for
Tulsa.



Cato had three TDs and 391 yards passing for Marshall.
