JMU Post-Game Thoughts & Discussion

[Vet70]

JMU came into the championship game averaging 472 yards of offense per game.

Bison defense held them to 365 yards.

Only West Virginia and Northern Iowa held them to fewer yards (328 and 346)

A number of posters have mentioned the awesome Bison offense. It also is worth noting the defense finished 1st in scoring defense and second in total defense behind JMU.

Bahahaha. Dabo says you go for 2

What the hell does Dabo know? He has only won two championships and makes like a gazillion dollars.

How does it feel to throw an interception on the last play of your career?

I would say way worse than it did for SDSU QBs Austin Sumner and Taryn Christion.

There’s a cell phone video where you can hear someone yelling “PICK! PICK!” Also I think the radio coverage mentioned this, but maybe that’s what Lakes was claiming, I didn’t hear it. The video with that audio is posted in here somewhere, tho...

Why does anyone care if someone yelled "pick" or not? The guys on the field dont hear that lmao.

I removed my comment because Charlie was talking about something else and I misunderstood.

Still haven't found the trophy presentation on youtube. Is this Cignetti the son of the Cignetti who was coach of Indiana State of PA when the Bison hammered them in a DII Title game?

You never turn a one score game back into a two score game. There is nothing logical about doing that. You take your chances with 2 when you've worked your way down to the possible tie. It isn't about knowing what to do if you don't make it, it is about narrowing the amount of moves you have to make. 2 scores and a 2 point conversion will always be easier than 3 scores. Always.

This is most definitely wrong.

In a spot where you are down 15, always go for 2 first. If you go for 1 right away, what are you playing for? A last second td where you are 50/50 to tie or lose with no time left? You have no incentive to rush it since best you can do is tie and hope other team doesnt have time to score.

If you go for 2 and make it, you are in same scenario as above except instead of a 50/50 chance at tie with td, its 95% (or 50/50 chance for WIN if you go for 2 again)

If you go for 2 and miss it at 50/50, now you know you need to rush your next score because you need one more.

Limiting coinflips at end of games (a 2pt conversion) and knowing exactly what pace you need to play is by far the most important thing.

Going for 1 after first td is by FAR the worst decision and just another reason why JMU was outmatched on the coaching front.

I was very surprised to see how little Kobe contributed after the three week layoff. He must still be suffering from the concussion suffered earlier in the playoffs, he just doesn't seem to have the same explosiveness he had earlier in the year. I realize we were heavy on the Trey for this game but Kobe seemed to be a shadow of himself. I, for one, am hoping for a full recovery for this very special young RB.
