Prediction Contest: JMU vs. Charlotte
The Dukes welcome the Charlotte 49ers to the friendly confines of Bridgeforth Stadium this Saturday. The Dukes are coming off a win over St. Francis (yes, a win), but looking to build some momentum before CAA play begins. Charlotte is a brand new program and it will be attempting to bounce back from its first loss ever, a 40-13 defeat by NC Central.
And it’s time to make predictions. As a quick reminder, here is how this works. Enter a comment with your prediction for the outcome of Saturday’s game. Include your winner and final score. The person who comes closest to correctly prediction the outcome (winner & score) will get to write a guest post next week. Easy as pie. So will JMU get its mojo back after a win that created more than a few question marks? Or will a first year program come into Bridgeforth and get its first road win ever? Let us know in the comments.

Former JMU coaches Phil Ratliff and Jim Durning are on UNCC’s staff now.

Thats my picture! Haha! Winner!
Hey, I know that guy! I was there when the picture was taken! Go Dukes!
2004 Duke, what is your real name? I was a member of the JMU football squad from 04-07. Just curious because I read this blog all the time and it looks like you read it as well.

I could be a little overly optimistic based on what I have seen to this point but here it is in all its glory. UNCC’s wins against Chowan (did not realize they were not a JUCO any longer) and Campbell (did not realize they even had a football team). But in reality, if the score is not similar to this we are in REAL trouble!

let’s not hear about how great the Dukes are and please no more Porn references. Last week you all sounded like the guys from SNL talking about Da Bears! Oh, Dukeeees win by 50, 37, no need to show up! You also sounded a lot like what VaTech used to say when they played JMU… before 2011!
Never underestimate the opposition. Prepare to play hard! This team figures to be in FCS for a couple years then move up to BCS like ODU.

@Cam we’re not sure what our plan is for Saturday yet. Might need to catch this one from home due to some family commitments. If we do go, we’ll tweet out the tailgating location upon arrival. Right now it’s tentatively looking like the big JMUSB tailgate will be for the Nova game. Stay tuned.
