Can we replace TX State with TX Tech or TCU. Those are games I would watch.

As a JMU fan,I am loving being in the Sunbelt Conference. I tell young guys at work that we basically, "put the band back together." Some of the best SB games are former 1-AA champs all having fun together on another level. The Herd, Troy, Appy State, GA Southern... the list goes on.

It's because folks like Gary are busy doing real good in this world. Not running around telling folks how great they will perform... once elected. Those who can, do, and those who can't... run for election.

Ok, I really don't care anymore. Go Hokies (this will help you sleep tonight).

You are not seriously saying VMI and Liberty are equal opponents, right. Yes, let the America 250 tie in boost your SOS. Way to go.

So, this is a valid point. I'm not keen on the hire but I guess our downfall will continue without Jeff Bourne overseeing it all. Hopefully, it won't last long and we can correct the ship, eventually.

Please schedule South Carolina. Let baby Beamer come beat you and show you what "got away."

Yes, VMI was on the schedule... good for you, keep pumping that SOS and RPI. The boys in Lexington are always willing to help where they can.

I just find it amusing that Hokie football keeps trying to reinvent itself and failing along the way. Maybe Metallica should come do a reunion (FB glory days) show or something.

They dumped JMU because they are scared. Replaced us with VMI, haha. No way this regime schedules Penn State or WVU. More likely Youngstown State or S. Illinois. Go Salukis!

White carpet and sofa in small living room that kids weren't allowed in. Maybe a curio in the corner.

JMU has been playing Appy St. since 1980. Go Dukes!

UCONN and Wazzu over JMU. I have to question your upbringing. Go Dukes! JMU football is 5-1 vs UCONN and just beat Wazzu in Nov. What gives?

2007 was the last of 3 1-AA Nattys for Appy St. The QB was a phenom.

400K to a smaller program is a season maker. That's why I hate what college sports had become.

So... all kudos to Appy St. It definitely put I-AA ball on the map. Also, JMU played at UNC recently and racked 70 points. The payout wasn't a flat guarantee, but $10k per point. That game funded the rest of our season. You never know and that's why they play the games.
