    JMU getting 8, and JMU getting some in the AP top 25 as well.

    I can't wait to beat them down again

    Agree. I don't get all the JMU love. I've watched them a few times. They are un defeated by like us, haven't been great most games. They won two because the opposing team missed very makeable FG's very late in the game. Can't stand them. They are my new Charlotte/UCF.

    I've watched a couple as well.  JMU has the best front 7 in the league.  Absolute wall up front.  But their back side is not good.  Their secondary play has been dreadful.  It will take a strong passing game to beat them.  They also have a nice transfer QB with some abilities to run and throw.  Jordan McCloud, younger brother of NFL WR Ray Ray McCloud, has been a good addition for them.  Played at Univ of Arizona and USF.  They are very beatable, especially in the Joan.  But they will key in on Ali like ODU did and make Cam beat them.  We shall see.

  • Ol didn?t open holes or push the pile.  Hopefully ODU is their worst game of year.

    I think one factor was trying to block the linebacker who leads the nation in tackles.  Also, It is good to see where the line is still leading the nation for not allowing quarterback sacks.

    Does a win @ NC State get us in Top 25?

    When was last time we were in Top 25? 2014?

  • We were #16 in the AP before the beatdown by Rice in 2020.

    Yep. But the many of the P5 teams and leagues weren't playing, yet (covid). As I recall. Someone correct me if I am wrong.

    Odu has pros.  We can?t be a great offense without Ali getting 5-6 ypc

    It may actually. If it doesn't, we'd be at 26-27.

    Even though they aren't clemson and fsu, hard to keep a 5-0 team with 2 ACC wins out of at least #25

    By the first week of December (Rice game) all FBS leagues and teams had resumed play (except for ODU, UConn, and New Mexico State - NMSU played a spring schedule due to being independent and only finding FCS schools to play).
