JMU—34
UND—21
JMU 27
UND 24
JMU 38-17
I’m taking the Dukes 17-7, but I’m not putting money on it. This will be a massive challenge on both sides of the ball.
Dukes – 23
UND- 20
Dukes – 27
Not the Bison – 20
JMU 38
NDU 21
JMU 30
UND 27
Madison 41, ND 31
This is a tough one and an honest assessment has North Dakota very likely coming out victorious. But as a fan I couldn’t be more excited because I want to see us take on the best teams out there (enough of the Morehead State / Robert Morris matchups!)
A JMU victory might look similar to 2017 when a hungry and talented Weber State came into a night game at Bridgeforth and it turned into a slugfest. I know this year’s offense isn’t as dynamic as that offensive squad was, but I’m holding out hope that they’ll rise to the occasion when they’re forced to:
JMU 31
ND 28
And the only reason I’m even making this shot-in-the-dark prediction is because I want to guest post a NDSU-JMU matchup the following week!
Dukes – 21
Other ND Team – 20
JMU – 17
UND – 10
2 teams that want to do a lot of the same stuff…who will impose their will–hopefully the Dukes play well!
Dukes 24
UND 20
Go Dukes!
JMU 24 – Other ND School 17. Close…but winner-winner
