I could be reading too deeply, but they never zoomed in on the helmet decal. You can see he's wearing the black interior block A, but just for a second. I wonder if that means they'll use a different helmet logo. Maybe we see victory Yosef? Flying Yosef? The return of the Gorton's fisherman Yosef?!?!?! USA Block A? They wore the old white interior block A earlier in the year.

Looks like I'm going to miss this game as a YTTV subscriber. I did the free trial of Fubo to get the games last weekend but that expires today and I am not paying more for this game.

I wonder how long this will last. The coaches have no understanding for this and the students care about JMU and Coastal.

You wonder how long our rivalry with Georgia Southern will last? As far as the coaches have no understanding of this, that is a ridiculously dumb statement. Our DC played in the rivalry. Our HC/OC is well aware of the rivalry games, because he was hired to win them.

I don’t think bcoach is as off base as you think.

I would be curious to poll students from say, the last decade, and ask them who they “hate” the most of JMU/Gag/Coastal. I think many on here would be surprised. Maybe me!

I would be willing to bet GAS comes in third.

This ESPN blackout sucks. I need some hockey fix. I’m not paying their $40 stand alone service. My passion for college athletics is waning and this is just pushing me farther away.

[BambooRdApp]

I am over 40. JMU or coastal do not register with me in the "rivalry" category. Have not played them enough.

[Saint3333]

This will be the 20th time we've played JMU, so many great comebacks for both, definitely a rival for me.

GameDay timeline

[spacemonkey]

Anyone want to give the weather for start of game and end of game?? How warm do i need to dress this Thursday????? Any rain expected??

As far as rivals, If you have been to an App/Coastal at Coastal and experienced their student fans it will move them up the ladder. I want App to blow them out at Coastal.

My rival list is JMU, Coastal and then Georgia Southern, Marshall. JMU is higher because more people pay attention to JMU football than Georgia Southern football. JMU is who we need to keep behind us or beside us when conference realignment happens again.

IF you have ESPN+, you can do a Disney + bundle and the additional per month is not much. I have the ESPN+, Disney + with commercial bundle and it is just a small amount per month to add ESPN, ESPN2 and ESPNU.(Also get ACC and SEC)

Go to www.disneyplus.com If you are watching sports you are watching commercials because it is live....get the package with commercials. 29/month and you can stop after football season.

For perpective, as a 52 year old, here is my order:

Marshall, Stink, JMU, Coastal.

When I was in school, Marshall was a really big deal.

Yes to hockey. I hope to be able to see our guys again this year.

Yes, it was. I was at App during 94 and 95 seasons.
After I viewed the movie "We Are Marshall", I mellowed a little bit ..I just want to beat them bad a little lesser.

[bcoach]

I was on the sideline in 94 and their fans were throwing crap at us. Food, batteries, cups and so on. Told a security guy about it and he laughed and walked away. Never went back to that dump. Coastal I want to win like any other game. JMU I want to win if for no other reason than to shut then up. They are just irratating like a bad rash. GAS is a whole different story. I just plain hate them. I would pull for anyone that played them in any sport. Anyone!

[Saint3333]

There are levels of hate:

- teams you enjoy beating a little extra (Marshall/JMU)
- teams you hate losing to (CCU)
- teams you hope lose all their games (GS)

Nailed it!

[AppinVA]

Hard to say when they've beaten us more than anyone in the conference. Terrible.

I've been to their campus. Wins and losses aside, we aren't the same.

I have too, sat in that stadium the last two times they beat us there.

We can poo poo their campus, their academics, etc. but for 60 minutes FIVE of the last SIX times they've beaten us. The only other conference opponent that has achieved that is GS from 2000-2004 (including a playoff game) and Furman 1988-1993, that's it, that's the list.

Can't argue that. But I still think it lends too much credit to refer to them as a rival. They are like a fly that's bitten you on the ankle 5 times. We all know what's coming.

Text Conversation with my wife just now...

Her: "Georgia Southern buses with a police escort on I77 in Columbia"
Me: "Flick them off"
Her: "They are heading north to get their arses beat"
Me: "Glad I married you....but don't text and drive"

Hurry, someone go lay down some spike strips in Fort Mill.
