Prediction Contest: JMU vs. Villanova
The Dukes are coming off a big win and in position to take the CAA crown. A road win at Villanova would just about lock it up. Beating Nova is never easy though. And this Saturday is legendary Villanova coach Andy Talley’s final home game, so expect dozens of fans to be packing the stands to support the Wildcats. Anyway, we want to know how you think the game will play out. Leave a comment with your prediction for the game. The person who comes closets to nailing it (winner & score) will get to write a guest post. That’s it. Go Dukes!
JMU – 45
Nova – 24
I’m still riding high from the Richmond win, but I really think this team is locked in and knows what they need to do. GO DUKES!

“Dozens of fans to be packing the stands” ha, I see what you did there. JMU 42 – 28 Andy Talley
Nova has a tough D, but I think JMU is focused. I won’t be able to watch the game for the first time this year. 42-17 JMU.

This is gonna be a lot tighter game than Richmond
Schorr and the receivers will make the difference
JMU 38 – Villanova 24
I think ‘Nova scores a garbage TD much like UR late in the game making the score closer than the game is.

I’m not sure what “a lot tighter game than richmond” looks like… seems like scoring a touchdown to go up with a minute and a half left is pretty darn close… but fair enough. I do think it stays close and the Dukes win, but my prediction skills are feeling rusty after last night… so what do I know? Go duuukes!

I’m concerned about our defense

Two games left in the season and I still don’t know what to make of this team. Winning a close one last week was good. Only moving up one spot in the polls should be motivating.
49-35 The James Madison University
I’ve been disappointed many times (but definitely not in 2008!) watching the Dukes play at Villanova. Thought about picking the Wildcats for a second but nahhhh that’d be ridiculous cause the Dukes are the best.

Not feeling real confident about this one … Talley’s last stand, Clinton’s last stand, no TV, no Madizone, …

JMUparent, I believe that there will be video for the game through Villanova’s site. So be prepared for another junior high AV club broadcast like last week.
