Both teams can be good. I wouldn't say those saying JMU is good are always discounting the fact that NDSU is also good. I don't think it's disrespectful towards NDSU when people say JMU is the team to beat. They're winners of 26 in a row and defending national champs. Like I said earlier, let them wear that mantle... IMO it'll do nothing but help the Bison's chances to come away with a win down in Frisco.
From the movie THE PROGRAM
Regent Chairman: This is not a football vocational school. It's an institute for higher learning.
Coach Winters: Yeah, but when was the last time 80,000 people showed up to watch a kid do a damn chemistry experiment? Why don't you stick the bow-tie up your ass?
Let them be confident. There's plenty of confident Bison fans here on Bisonville too. It should make for some really fun pre-game banter Friday into Saturday down in Frisco.
I'm fine with fans thumping their chests and touting their team as long as they have the cajones to come back and give props and admit it if they were wrong.

Just don’t go over there. It’s a mid-Atlantic thing. We lived in DC for several years and my wife says it very nearly turned me into an arrogant asshole. I’m still recovering, even though we’ve been home for sometime now. It’s the polar opposite of the quiet, pseudo-humble, passive-aggressive stuff that we all know so well here. I think it’s the result of too many people, too may cars and terrible traffic (holy shit!!!! you have no idea), and being so close to 'the swamp'.
JMU looks very good but so do the Bison. Anyone who thinks this game has already been decided is a clueless idiot.
Their band gives them an edge too...
I'd argue that their ridiculous defense gives them the edge but I guess the band is more important.
