I really do want us to beat JMU, but a couple of things are going against us.
#1. JMU got a scare this week, while, even though our offense didn't play great, we really didn't get a scare...it's more motivating to have that scare prior to the big game.
#2. JMU will be more prepared for us after the close game last year.
#3. We'll put too much pressure on ourselves to win this thing.
In reality, all of the pressure should be on JMU. They're ranked above us, they play in a tougher conference, they should be the ones expected to win.
Our offense just needs to go out there and play like they're playing against NC State...like they've got nothing to lose.
Also, our defense has to figure out how to defend that short curl...it seemed like they adjusted to it from RMU with about 5 minutes left in the first half.
