Last chance to buy 4 great tickets for over 50% off face value. My ebay auction ends in less than 2 hours. These are section 110, third row; probably better and cheaper than many allotment seats.

I'm a JMU fan, but would not take a bet for more than the line. 8)
About 2006.... We had a very good team that year that was one of the favorites to win it all as you were. For us it was worse because not only did we need to play another contender but had to do so on the road on a short week. We've had a history of being screwed by the selection committee in the past, as well as by our own admin in the bidding process.
I think the reason for not liking the JMU fans is 1) they are very vocal, and 2) the streamers are a different twist especially in your stands.
I know our admin was not real happy with your admin (in advance of the event) in the way the event was handled, but forget the reason....
Both teams have exceeded expectations this last month. This will be two well coached teams. How can either fan base not be optimistic or confident?
On ASU's side - you're from easily the best conference in 1AA/FCS. Obviously battle tested. Played WVU well. Have a coach from a major program. Good QB, and Defense. You've been counted out for the last 6 months, while knocking off top 5 teams on the way. You have history with your program, so you've tasted success.
On JMU side - Only loss was to UNC and have been playing the best ball in it's history the last month. JMU was up 65-0 after three quarters against the highest scoring offense in FCS/#5 seed/#1 ranked SHSU. JMU went into the Dome and knocked out #1 seed/5 year reigning champs. JMU is one of the best supported teams in FCS.
Two teams unexpected by most will come to play in a couple weeks.
As a JMU fan, I do hate waiting 3 weeks after playing three great playoff games. Hope the time off does not hurt momentum.
On a three week layoff - coaching will be key.

They were suspended for the NDSU game as well. Same team that beat the Bison will be playing us.

Does anyone know for sure that our 5 suspended players are not going to play for the championship game? I don't know if this has anything to do with the suspension. The academic semester is officially over the day after the EWU game. We are now technically into the next semester.
However, I thought someone on this board had suggested that the suspension would last for 6 months or half a season into next year. Is that true?

Marijuana is 6-months ...everything else (non-steroid) is one year. This is mandatory. The NCAA only recently reduced it to 6-months. I will go out to NCAA.org and find it for us.

Weird cause Ohio State surely doesn't suspend players 6 months for weed.
