Houston is a great coach and JMU is a great team. I have no doubt that we will see them again soon.
But after peaking at their board (

Using arguments like “if JMU doesn't drop those passes, different outcome” is no different than saying “if the Bison don’t screw up on special teams, different game”. JMU did drop those passes and the Bison did screw up on special teams, but the better team won Saturday because, overall, THAT team did a better job of executing their game plan.
This is what makes the Bison the best team in FCS this year.
