In their first meeting back on October 1st., James Madison had a 42-12 lead before New Hampshire scored 27 unanswered points over the final 10 minutes. I don't expect this one to end up that close, though there is at least some murkiness since this is oddly the first good team JMU has played at home. Nevertheless, the Dukes have better special teams and their offensive advantage is bigger than UNH's defensive advantage.

Here's my assessment of the matchups & my pick for the game:

• • • Quarterbacks -- James Madison
      
      Running Backs - James Madison
      
      Receivers/TEs - James Madison
      
      Offensive Line - James Madison
      
      
      Defensive Line - New Hampshire
      
      Linebackers --- New Hampshire
      
      Secondary ---- James Madison
      
      
      Kicking ------ (push)
      
      Punting ------ James Madison
      
      Return Teams - James Madison
      
      Kickoffs ------ James Madison
      
      
      
      
      
      • New Hampshire 28-45 James Madison

ECB!

Purple is for the sucks!

I'm rooting for the team with the tight pants!

JMU’s Schor will play in CAA rematch with New Hampshire

Figured as much. Its been 3 weeks since the collarbone injury early 2nd qtr vs Villanova, in which he missed the rest of that game and vs Elon. Mon last week he was reportedly still wearing a sling, but by the middle off last week the sling was off and he was in helmet/no pads throwing. This week was reportedly in pads. Don't think JMU will try to run him as much..

JMU 31, UNH 7, halftime.

JMU absolutely abusing UNH. 324 yards to 66 at the half. UNH scored 1st when intercepted a tipped Schor pass and returned it to around the JMU 10 yard line. Since then its been all JMU. JMU offense and defense playing lights out..UNH overplaying JMU run- has held JMU to 35 yards on the ground (after 2 sacks) but JMU 289 through the air. Schor is picking them apart- 19 for 24, 3 TDs. Also oneof JMU WR threw a TD off of a sweep trick play.

And just like that UNH takes the opening kickoff and drives down the field for a TD, about doubling their yardage for the game. Made 2 point conversion. 31-15.

And just like that JMU 90 some yd kick return for TD! 38-15..

JMU holds, drives, TD. 45-15 mid 3rd qtr.

Final JMU 55, UNH 15.

JMU very easily could have put up 70+. 2nd half fumbled in the endzone, had another TD called back with a holding penalty & took a FG, instead, and were unside the UNH 10 with 2+ min and took a knee.

Held UNH to 180 yards until the last 2 min. UNH starters vs JMU 2nd/3rd string drove 90+ yards for a TD to pad the stats & score.

Schor 30 of 37, 371 yards, 5 TDs/1 INT
