I know this board is going to hate this and probably needs to be put in a back closet folder...but......Liberty is beating Baylor 48 - 38!

As corrupt as Baylor's athletic administration has been, it's nice to see them lose to a school whose athletics are run by a pious, upstanding man like... oh right.

And James Madison thumps EZU!!!!

Howard took down UNLV too. At this rate who knows, maybe Western will upset Hawaii.

Good. I just don't like to see the pyrites win. Shouldn't have fired Ruffin McNeil.

I've got to give the devil his due (pun intended). I don't respect Liberty University, but I respect what the football team did on Saturday. Beating a P5 team, (much less a Big 12 team on the road), is something we haven't done in a decade, and never as an FBS team.

Congrats to Liberty on a good win.

Anyone see the Jmu ezu game? Ezu that bad this year?

It's not that Ezu is that bad, it's more like Jmu is that good.

Regarding the JMU win over ECU, I have to think it's a combination of JMU being legitimately good (defending National FCS Champs) and ECU continuing to struggle (same as last year). Still a great win for JMU.

It's both.

JMU will remain a top-dog in FCS as long they can keep Mike Houston. After that, I predict a decline.

ECU is going to run Scottie out of town soon. They fired Ruffin for a higher ceiling and fell through the floor.

So do we assume ezu will be on top of its game when we play them per usual?

Top 15, undoubtedly.

They're G5, like us. Hope it only works on P5s.

I am hoping ECU is in for a long slide. With all the extra FBS and FCS teams in the state they are going to need to rethink how they handle themselves or they will lose their spot as the premier non-Prig5 football schoo in the statel, assuming it has not already happened.
