\"\"<\/a>Our friends over at Mister Irrelevant<\/a> started a weekly predictions contest with their readers this season. Readers predict the outcome (winner & score) for each week’s Redskins game and whoever comes closest to nailing it, gets a chance to guest post the following week. We think it’s such a great idea that we told them we’re stealing it.<\/p>\n

This isn’t going to replace the weekly JMUSB game previews. Those will be posted each Friday with the same mix of semi-serious analysis and snark. Prior to that on Wednesday or Thursday, we’ll start a prediction thread for that week’s game. That will be your cue to predict the winner and final score in the comments. Keep it simple or break the game down in great detail. Whomever comes closest to nailing it will get to write a guest post on the topic of his or her choice the following week. Write about whatever your little heart desires: your favorite JMU sports memory, how to fix the pass defense, why JMUSB is the best blog on the interwebs, etc. Pretty simple, right?<\/p>\n

So let’s start things off right now. The 4-2 JMU Dukes host the 1-5 Villanova Wildcats. Who wins and by what score?<\/p>\n
