Caught your breath yet? Maybe we can use a different lede next week. College football has been upside down through three weeks, and it seems as if App State has been in the center of it all. Forty-point fourth quarters? Check. Knocking off a top ten opponent on the road? We have that too. Winning on a hail mary touchdown pass? Why not. App State has played just three games with nearly a seasons worth of moments. What could possibly happen next? We welcome in an old rival that also plays the part of a conference newcomer. The Dukes landed in the Sun Belt East along with Old Dominion and Marshall. This will be the seventeenth meeting between the two schools and first matchup as conference opponents. Among the more recent FCS-FBS transitions, the Dukes have the pedigree, with two national championships, and a winning history. They were rumored to have declined an invitation to the Sun Belt years ago, but could not pass it up a second time. This will be the Sun Belt opener for the Dukes, and their fans could not be more excited to renew a budding rivalry.

I would be happy to leave KBS and not see any purple streamers.

Think last week was a wake up call. Our offense brings the thunder, defense does better, but not great.

This one scares me....JMU reminds me a lot of App. They expect to win. They have great fan support. They are a college town. They were the team I pulled for in FCS after App left. I think this will be close. I hope not because I would like to just sit and relax in my chair for one week.

My prediction is

We might not score considering they are giving up only 10 yards a game

Unmovable object vs unstoppable force

I felt uneasy before the UNC game. I was more confident in beating A&M. I overlooked Troy like many. I am now uneasily confident but not overlooking JMU.

An upset wouldn't surprise me but I believe App takes care of business.
But not picking a score

After 3 emotionally draining games, I hope the boys are grounded and ready. JMU is not bad, but they aren’t App State either.

App struggles to run the ball as they face the most formidable run defense in major college football. App would undoubtedly rather face Georgia as they allow far more YPG. But alas we must try to move the ball and hope to score.

I’ll have high hopes that we get some injured players back and play a complete game. And will hope for my health that we win easily.
