I hate to pick against the Dukes, but I just can’t see us winning this game. Close at halftime, then; Nova 34, Dukes 21
JMU 28
Villains: 24
31-17 Nova (No heart, identity or killer instinct in this JMU team)
Preaching to the choir Deacon.
Villanova – 27
JMU – 21
Can’t pick against them and root for them at the same time. That is just my 2 cents.
Jmu 23
Kitty cats 20
34 Nova
22 JMU
Dukes 30
Kittehs 27
Fighting Papists 23
Underachievers 17
Warm up the moving van.
I bet we will be up 10-3 at the half and then crap our pants in the 2nd half with the patented MM “Prevent Offense”….preventing JMU from winning.
Not negativity…just a prediction.
Villa cats 28
JMU Duuukes 21
“Prevent Offense” Great term for MM!
I don’t often make predictions on JMU Sports Blog, but when I attend the game, I choose to do so.
Eternal optimist with his purple and gold blinders on. Dukes surprise us:
JMU: 27 (1 defensive TD)
Villa-no-fun:17
Dukes 27
Nova 23
Dukes bounce back.. .win 33-30. Still need to fire MM.
I agree, I too predict we look great going in at half with all the momentum and winning and choke/get out-coached and lose by a TD.
Dawgs – 23
Pussy Cats – 17
17-13 good guys
E-Hall Eatin Dukes: 34
No Fan Support Feral Cats: 27
Dogs win (I hate cats)
So, who won last week’s prediction?
I can’t recall the person’s name, but we’ve been unable to get a response via email from last week’s winner. It happens every so often.
38-31 DUUUUUUKES!!!!!!
14-13 mc after 2 quarters; we know the 2nd half doesn’t matter since the fighting mickeys only play 1/2 a game….
They person probably doesn’t want to own up to picking the Tribe last week……
JMU 30-21
