Bandl is going to be pissed that JMU misses Towson in 2011.

[89Hen]

Only two road games in conference for Delaware.

[T-Dog]

CAA games that won't happen in 2011

JMU vs Towson
Delaware vs JMU
UNH vs Delaware
ODU vs UNH
Maine vs ODU
W&M vs Maine
UMass vs W&M
Towson vs UMass
Richmond vs Nova
URI vs Richmond
Nova vs URI

Only two road games in conference for Delaware.

Well, that does tend to happen every other year!

Gotta like it for Delaware, though. Three of the 5 games are against the weaker members in the conference (ODU at start-up, Towson, and URI) and 2 of those games are part of the road schedule. No UNH and no JMU and the Maine trip is still when the weather isn't terrible (Oct 1 - it gets bad up there the week after). Plus UMass comes to Newark again so we get to see the CAA's best band yet again. UD also gets a late open week as they aren't playing Nov 5. Not bad at all.

JMU vs Towson

- wow, that used to be an end of year rivalry game. There's a tradition that's now torn asunder!

W&M vs Maine

- too bad, MJ could've regaled the W&M folks about when W&M chickened out of a game because of some blown down branches.

Agreed. This could be a good schedule for easing in a non-transfer QB.

I think there was an implied joke at Nova's expense there.

Yes, there is much humor intended in 89's post.

And playing Navy to open the year isn't terrible either - gives them the whole summer to get ready for the triple option. I think DSU is lined up for Sept 10, so that's another easy one there. Do we know the 3rd OOC team at home on Sept 17? Is Duquesne up again?

One last game vs WCU(PA), no? Or is it a 12 game year?

Since when are game at Towson and Nova road games?

Yup - my bad - forgot. Was just hoping it ends sooner (although it ceased being competitive a good 15 years ago or so). 2011 isn't a 12 game year.

They sure do like sending JMU north for the late November games.

Payback for Mickey running his mouth incessantly.

Not sure what you're getting at, but they have played the 'North' teams (Maine, Umass, Northeastern, Rhode Island, Hofstra, UNH ) just once in the past 5 years in the month of November. But if you are referring to teams that are farther north than JMU, then they have still only played 5 teams in the 'north' in the past 5 years in the month of November.
Once in 2009 (UMass)
Once in 2008 (Tobson)
Once in 2007 (Delaware)
Twice in 2006 (Villanova, Torwson)
None in 2005
No need to mention 2004.

2 questions...nmnathletics, is this really a credible source?? I went on their site, just call me skeptical.

Second, man UD gets cut a schedule break if this is right, no JMU or UNH and they get to play TU, ODU & URI. 2 years in a row the schedule gods smile on us.

It looks like nmnathletics might be a data site for jumptv which is a online partner of the CAA

Once a year...you're right, it's a conspiracy against Matthews for talking!!!

No other CAA South team is playing in New England in November for 3 straight years.

You're not getting it, Geoff. I agree with you. The CAA is out to get JMU, and in particular, Matthews. He talks, and he should go to hell for that.
Don't you wish Cosgrove would talk? Maybe Maine could actually win a few more games.
