As long as we're playing "what-if".
What if we didn't have a ND 9 man punter the entire game? This was a huuuuuuge impact on the game. We had terrible field position almost the entire game.

Ok.... Guys leave the JMU fans alone. The game on Saturday was between two very evenly matched teams. If they played 10 times I could see us winning 6...or 4. So, I can see them dwelling on the "what could have been.". Now on the other hand, football is a sport where the team that makes the fewest mistakes wins. They made more mistakes, and that is why they lost. Not making mistakes is a "talent" as much as running or catching. It's also possible (I can't say) that JMU made similar mistakes all year, but were so dominant that they were covered up. You don't notice 4 drops when you win by 20pts. (Ask SHSU who didn't know how bad their defense was until their offense couch dig them out.)
The difference in Saturdays game was special teams and mistakes. They won the first one, NDSU won the second.

so was at the bb game tonight and durring thw free t-shirt toss the guy 3 rows down gets hit in the hands and ultimately bobbles the shirt and drops it. i lean over to the folks sitting in front of me and say....guy cant catch worth a shit, he could play for jmu. everyone lol. i go on to say.... All they got was a free shirt to.
anyway, best part off the bb game!
Maybe I am just crazy... but what? Mess got more aggressive against SDSU when it appeared the game plan for success against them had been demonstrated, and suggested the type of ball this program had been built for.
I’m happy with the win. Who gives a rip if NDSU could have been more fancy? JMU had turnover city waiting out there. Glad JMU was given respect.
RPO might be “conservative” and payed some dividends, but also resulted in a turnover.
Disappointed Mess went back to shotgun run and pass when I form power was just starting to pay off.
Thank goodness the o gave the d the rest they did to finish the win. Great game, whole team/program won even if the d stood out that day.

When you play football, you gotta like the taste of blood, And 50 percent of the time, it's your blood.
It is characteristic of the unlearned that they are forever proposing something which is old, and because it has recently come to their own attention, supposing it to be new.

We all live in stories... It seems to me that a definition of any living vibrant society is that you constantly question those stories... The argument itself is freedom. It's not that you come to a conclusion about it. Through that argument you change your mind sometimes... That's how societies grow. When you can't retell for yourself the stories of your life then you live in a prison... Somebody else controls the story. - S. Rushdie
