The mascot mock is 3-0 and thinks it would make a national championship run each season if it played in the Sun Belt.

Marshall's early sports teams were called Indians or "Normalists," as Marshall was a normal school, a two-year degree that qualified the degree holder to teach secondary school. When the team started wearing green and white in 1903 (a nice change from black and blue in the 1890s for the Indians), the team went by "Big Green" for a number of years.

Marshall's student body first got a bison in the 1930s, when an animal from the famous Marland 101 Ranch in Oklahoma was procured. The animal went along with the nickname then The Herald-Dispatch's sports editor started using for the team in 1928.
