No TJ on the defensive starting lineup.

You will likely see him in a game before you see him on a depth chart.

In grand scheme, last week's game did not matter (I do come from the school of they all matter)
Our season starts today - Craddock opens the playbook and leaves it all on the field Defense holds and we win
21 - 17

I re-watched this game. This one was definitely winnable. I feel better than I did. Defense played really well. A few missed assignments and no takeaways. Offense just didn't execute especially on our last 2 drives. We are so close to being elite and dominant in our league, and it's what it will take to ever get to NY6 level that we all believe we are capable of. If we keep progressing, I believe we can win out. Keep...showing up!

So what exactly is the reason behind the period of ineligibility?

So what exactly is the reason behind the period of ineligibility? I'm sure AP can quote you the exact rules, but back in the day, we had to sit out of postseason our first years as FBS (moved from 1AA to 1A). I think it used to be in place because 1AA schools were where many 1A players landed when things didn't work out at their previous school. I think the players didn't have to sit out a year if they changed divisions. Our first couple of FBS seasons, we had a few good transfer students, Demontray Carter is one example. With the transfer portal, I don't think it makes much sense these days, except making teams pay their dues like all up and comers have had to do. JMU has a good team and should be proud. When we win the SBC, they can come over here and talk smack. They've earned that at least.

Couple things: I hope JMU wins EVERY GAME THEY PLAY, helps us with conference record. I THINK IT SUCKS that they are ineligible to play in the post season. I would really LOVE A REMATCH now that we seemed to have figured out the O line issues which we had not when we played them. Our d is well, OUR D! Think it would be classic!

When we win the SBC, they can come over here and talk smack. They've earned that at least. I agree, I think the 2 year rule is in place from the old education aspect and the attrition of getting some players out who qualified under those rules. Based on transfer portal, should this rule be changed, probably. Did JMU know the rule when they signed up to play with the big boys, yep. So take your medicine and quit whining. The announcers last night were pathetic. I too hope they win out, put them in the top 5 for all I care. They still can't play in the SBC championship game but the NCAA did give them grace by allowing them to play in a bowl game in the event there are not enough qualifying teams, so they have that to look forward too.

Even my wife said something about it! There are probably a LOT of broken TVs in Thundering Herd Territory this morning IF they didn't mute their sets last night!!

I read it. I didn’t understand much of it. I just want to sit back and relax and watch TMTDM sack quarterbacks. I’m being honest when I say: Troy football may become too expensive of a hobby for me. Chess is cheaper.

Well Virginia took down North Carolina. Thus by extrapolation JMU should be ranked pretty high. We have a lot of football left but I hope they do allow JMU to play if they win the East.
