JMU would beat NTSU by three TDs. I fully expect a dogfight on Saturday.
Back off Warchild seriously.

42-35. They get up on us early, we come back and take a strong lead, they score late. (I don't know if they'll score in the 30s but I think we'll score in the 40s). (our scoring is trending UP, so why not ... 21, 31, 37 . . .).

Re: Official: SMU vs. JMU Thread
From a recruiting standpoint, they have 3 players rated:
- Gage Steele, MLB, got a 2 star, 74 rating from 247, but had no composite score
- Vad Lee - 3 star, .8844 rating (Davis is 4, .9452)
- Brandon Ravenel - 3 star, .8367 (About as even a score as Sutton.)
I was kind of surprised at that, because I expected to see a bunch of D1 transfers (there aren't) and players who are decently regarded but didn't have the grades. Not the case.
To put it in perspective, UNT had 7 3 star starters. We have 12 and a 4 star.
Dominate the line on both sides of the ball, limit turnovers, and let our talent win. If we play the game right, this is a 20+ point victory.
Look for us to play like the UNT game - not as much zero coverage as we did in the Baylor game, allow the safeties to help. Expect either Horton or Yenga to shadow Lee to cut down on scramble plays.
The LBs HAVE to make plays so that we can keep a safety help on Ravenel.

Go Mustangs! Dukes need to go down. Sister-in-law is a JMU grad and will never hear the end of it if we don't win. Plus have a special hate for them as a rival of U. of Delaware. 48-0 Ponies!!!
