Anybody going to watch?

Crappy time slot handed down from the powers that be.

Got to get it done before NFL Playoff game I guess.

It’s a great matchup between two great teams and a crazy rabid sellout crowd. Why wouldn’t you watch?h

Let's hope NDSU can take it home. Can never pull for JMU

Best time slot available on a weekend otherwise full of NFL playoff games.

Poor clock management at the end of the half by JMU cost them a shot at a TD.

I am more willing to watch this than the rigged system that is the CFP. That and Furman sucks.

It has been a good game to watch. I cannot stand either one of them, so I don't care who wins. I do very mush hate those purple and gold streamers though.
Yes, I agree that Furman still sucks.

Rigged CFP system? Really?

Yes, until every FBS conference champ has a spot I called it rigged.

I wish we could’ve gotten a crack at NDSU before the move up but our FCS days ended with a thud. Heck, put them on the home schedule now.

JMU's defense kept them in this game, they looked very good. NDState didn't score in the second half.

If we play FCS I would like to play Furman since they have the series advantage, WCU for the older fans that miss that rivalry and NDSU. JMU would be ok as well as would Deleware. Nothing else really moves the needle for me in the FCS, though it would not keep me from Boone if I am off work that weekend and it certainly would not keep me from watching on ESPN3.

i dont want to play ANY decent FCS team. Certainly not NDSU or JMU...lets stick with teams that our guys can beat badly even if we bring our C game...It wont help us any by losing to a good FCS team

I had to search on espn to find the score to the game. No story on the front page. I had to scroll past our score from our win two weeks ago and put in FCS to finally find it.

After reading this whole thread, I still don't know who won or the score? Nice!

I think I see what point you're trying to make, but the problem is your source of information is notorious for not knowing how the place relevant stories where they belong. "Ball brothers are set to play in Lithuania" was one of their headlines. Their articles are poorly written, and even their article comment sections are becoming lame.

This x1000. It also won’t help us any to beat a good FCS team. Those aren’t our rivals anymore.

Congrats to the Bison whom I pulled for!

Due to traditions, successful programs, fan support and attendance....I wish these two programs along with Montana would move up to FBS level and only these programs....all three would transition well if certain conferences would accept them. However, JMU has a fat head that's too big for their own good. MW would be ideal home for NDSU and Montana. Only question for NDSU is the mini done they play in but at least they fill it up. Montana speaks for itself and JMU has nicer facility than lot of current FBS even if they are obnoxious. They should join the SunBelt but think too highly of themselves!
