A couple minutes left in Sun Belt championship game. I honestly don't feel as bad about our loss now. Troy, best in the west sitting with -26 yards rushing.
You should watch again 😂. We looked like high school team
I couldn't think of an amount that would get me to watch it. Turned it off at halftime 1st time.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

In somewhat, sort of related news. LSU announced tonight that Blake Baker has decided to stay at LSU. Baker took the LSU defense from a 100+ ranking in Defense to a top twenty defense in one season. He turned down offers of head coach at Memphis and Tulane (his alma mater). Both jobs are still open.

BTW Go VA.

EDIT and correction - Found out Billy Napier was on Tulane's list and was their second choice. He was going to be offered if Blake Baker didn't work out. Apparently, he didn't want to wait around and see and took JMU. Or he didn;t know and just wanted a job.

Napier will try to complete a similar process as DLo (ark and cocks)... He will more than likely try to get U of F kids that will want more playing time.

What Chesney takes will be interesting situation. Most of players on JMU are East Coast kids. Will they want to go cross country to LAX.? Time will tell

JMU doesn’t have the same level of talent to take this time around.

A Duke win and a CFP bid for the Pukes doesn't help the Sun Belt nearly as much as it hurts the ACC.

JMU lucks into the playoffs.

I hope they lose by 100.

JMU can't lose by enough to satisfy me.

How the hell did anyone in the Sun Belt make the playoff before us?
Now I’m just happy with 7-8 wins.

JMU came in and kicked us in the balls and stole our girlfriends.

Then stole our lunch

If anyone got kicked in the figs here, it was the ACC.
