JMU vs. Twoson official thread

[mcveyrl]

Dude, how do you drop that? GRRRRR.

No kidding.

That blitz on 4th was the first one in a while that's actually gotten to him. I'm really impressed with how Towson's been picking the blitzes up. We've got 6 or 7 guys every third down and not getting hardly any pressure.

It would be a real tragedy if JMU happened to fumble here.

[Tubby Raymond]

They've never done that before, have they?

[AZGrizFan]

JMU has scored a grand total of 37 points in their last 12 quarters of football....that does NOT a top 10 team make....

It almost happened on a confused sweep there...

Yeah, we get it. You can easily spot poor CAA performances that you hope will knock the CAA collectively out of playoff contention.

You spotted Richmond, Nova, and W&M, and by golly you're just waiting for Delaware and UMass to fuck up too.

But they've only given up 27.

Actually, UMass and Delaware continue to impress. Mr. Paranoid....

29, but who's counting, right?

????

They've given up a grand total of 29 points in those twelve quarters. So they could be. I know this is a foreign concept to the 64-61 Big Sky folks, but we usually put eleven guys on the other side of the ball too.

But I wouldn't fault people for dropping them. This was a "bad win" if there ever was one.

I also wouldn't sleep on Towson. Those that watched can attest. They are much better than most, including me, gave them credit for. I would hope (think) that they've improved leaps and bounds throughout the year.

Derp. I added their score against Delaware instead of Delaware's.

I will also add that apart from our games, the teams are averaging the following:


Delaware - approx. 30 (granted they were without Devlin for our game)
Liberty - between 35 and 40
Va. Tech - over 30
Towson - not much, but you get the point.

[93henfan]

I was sort of hoping that JMU would be the school to suffer a humiliating defeat to Towson.

I am well aware that a certain school 60 miles up I-95 is now the only big fish left on their schedule.

Please God, don't let it be us. Like mcveyrl said, Towson did not play like the joke I had been led to believe they were tonight.

[mcveyrl]

I'm all for you taking up our cause and I appreciate it, but if you give us 10 instead of 13 that game...it comes to 26...

I'm glad a non-JMU fan can attest to that...I didn't want to be that guy.

Congrats Towson. JMU, esp the offense, Haven't looked at the stats, but defense didn't look all that great either. JMU plays like this again won't win another game.

As far as next week, very worried. Came into the game minus 2 starters plus a valuable Griff Yancey out. Lost 3 more starters by the end of the game (2nd d line starter). You UD fans will be happy to know one of them was DJ Bryant, who looks like was held out as a precaution after he got his bell rung in the 3rd qtr.

I'll give an injury update on the JMU @ UNH thread for next week.

[AssKickinChicken]

JMU's defense may continue to win them some games, but that offense needs a lot of work.

Three redshirt freshman started on the o-line last night. Pretty impressive.

This is the second tough loss for the Tigers. The improvement from last years team and this years isn't visible in the win loss column, but it is very noticable if you watch them. It's an impossible schedule to build up, but I can see the progress each week.

10/16 @ UR
10/30 URI
11/6 @ UD
10/13 Maine
10/20 @UNH

Towson probably has at least a reasonable chance in all those games except for @ UD. Towson wins 1-2 of those games. 3 wouldn't surprise me that much.

[andy7171]

Still awefully young. At 1-5, this is when teams will start to sleep on Towson during the week. I wouldn't be surprised if we sneak one or two. That said I am preparing for a 1-10 finish.

Wow. What the hell did I do.

Yet you think that Montana St is a top 5 worthy team and they gave up a zillion points to some shit team last week.

As talented as Sean Schaffer was, he never really scared me. That kid Saturday impressed (and frightened) the heck out of me.

All he needed was some clip-on dreds and he would have been a dead-ringer for AE.

So fortunate to have come away with a win... Good luck Towson, you have really improved.

Where'd I make that bet?
