I'm not a GS football player or coach... so there is no risk.

Lmao and that's a truth bomb in itself.

The big thing to me is that JMU has throttled everyone except App State and, well, we throttled them throughout a good chunk of the game. You could argue about 50 minutes of it. I also think Texas State and Arkansas State aren't nearly the cupcakes some think they are. So I think it's tough to discount us much due to SOS when we've pretty much dominated that schedule just as much as you'd expect about any top 25 team to. Syracuse is the better example of someone I'd really chalk up as getting by on an easy schedule.

I don't think there's anyone left on our schedule who would win more than we would if they played JMU ten times except maybe Coastal and I think it's still tough to get a read on just how good they are. Play JMU vs GS ten times and I'd guess we probably win seven or eight, but of course you always have to worry that the one actually played will be one of the two or three. The key for GS will be making big plays against our secondary and avoiding turnovers imo.

Dammit DD i wanna give you rep points but you're already at the perfect number.

Grew up in Savannah going to Paulson. Bummed I can't make it back home for this one. Lots of GSU alum family.

I think the biggest matchup will be our running game versus GSU's rush defense.

I haven't the slightest doubt our defense will be swiss cheese. If we have a chance of winning this game it will be in a track meet.

We've got a lot of backs, and will probably try to control the clock.

Hard to control the clock when you're gaining like 12 yards per carry. That has been our problem haha.

LOL! Fair enough. Really wish I was back in Paulson for this one.

haha. i'll take this as a rep point.

God I can’t believe I have to root for Georgia Southern on this one. App needs some help if we have any shot at the CCG

JMU can't win the East.

JMU 66, GA Southern 6. The Devil’s Score. We will also roll up 666 yards of offense and leave scorch marks on your field.

Then the second quarter will start.

JMU isn't eligible this year.

Oh that’s right. So it would be East runner up if the top one is JMU. Man talk about an asterisk if the East second place ended up winning the conference championship.

Go Dukes!? LOL

JMU fans in August: We are so excited to join a conference where the fans actually care about their programs! Can't wait for a little friendly smack talk before games!

TxSt fans in Sept: We suck, we are flying in tomorrow, but I'm going to go ahead and say congrats on your forthcoming win!
Ark St fans last week: We are getting better, but you guys will roll.
GSU fans now: You're cursed so you'll likely only win by 30.

There was tons of smack before the App game. And after you beat us it toned the smack talk way back from the rest of the league. That, and the fact that you beat another SBC team - and are undefeated - frankly have people a little stunned to be honest.

JMU fans need to beware....one loss and we will plummet in rankings and unleash a torrent of "told ya so's".... Heck, it's worth it :)

Don’t you worry your pretty little head over that.

Yeah, the weeks they play Coastal and ODU they'll get enough of that.

Southern fans usually will talk good smack but most of us are realists and aren’t going to be blowhards unless we think it’s deserved.


Except against App. Screw those guys. We’ll beat them by 30.
