Does anyone know the 7 players suspended by JMU?  Do they compare to our 5 who were not only starters, but significant starters in most cases.  How about the depth of JMU compared to YSU to replace those suspended?  Also it appears that the YSU starters were suspended due to testing by the NCAA.  Any word on the JMU suspensions and their source of the suspensions.  I know that most of this is conjecture since all programs do not release names, let alone reasons and sources of suspensions.

5 of our 7 players out were occasional back ups at most.  We did lose one of our top receivers, and our leading tackler for the year.  Certainly players we would like to have, but those are two positions we had plenty of depth.  Those players were both in rotations....

The difference our offense poses for you guys is that it is both good passing and running.   Before the  suspension of our WR you could argue it's both the best running and passing game JMU has ever had. 

Are defense struggled at times earlier in the season, especially covering receivers.  Your recipe to a win would likely be running the ball, and eating up the clock.....  Our pass coverage of late has been pretty good.  Ask SHSU.

You're right - just because we played well against SHSU and NDSU means nothing.   JSU and EWU accomplished the same.....

How does this relate to our game? Jesus, I'm tired of you pengus hiding behind this.  We heard the same exact thing from NDSU fans... "Oh everyone thinks they can knock us off".   Does anyone on here actually talk football?

Before you throw stones take a look at your board! I was going to post before I saw one of your posters asking the almighty why they had to play a team with the likes of Bo as coach and Jim Tressel as president? Who do you think you are anyway? Notre Dame? Clean up you're own board.

So, Uh, leave ? this isna YSU forum where we can use whatever argument we choose. you are a guest. act like it.

Ah okay so instead of actual football talk it's go back to your (or you're if you are KilrPengWin) board?  Gotcha.  Buncha Uncle Ricos - bet you'd discuss HS football with me.

Looks like its time for you to get the ban hammer.

Must have been a picture of your QB when he saw he was facing YSUs defense.

So back to business. What are we hearing about Smith and Colucci in regards to their status for the game?

I apologize but I cannot go this year. However my group is all still going. Yes the direct flight out of Port Columbus was less than I thought and I probably could have swung it ...only $268 round trip (again non-stop) if we traveled on Friday and Monday. (or Sunday red-eye). Our group is from the Ytown area and will be traveling out of Akron-Canton and it cost them $417 to leave Friday night. They arrive after midnight. I will get their details and let you know.

Their mouths run so.much it doesn't surprise me.  They have a loud and annoying fan base with zero humility from all of the datable that I've gathered.  They need some humble pie
