View Full Version : JMU @ Norfolk State



Derby City Duke
September 7th, 2018, 08:18 AM
The Dukes complete a H&H with the Spartans of the MEAC in Norfolk. I expect a more competitive game than last year.

In 2017, JMU:

won 75-14 at home in first meeting
rushed for 472 yards
totaled 728 yards of total offense (1 shy of school record)
held NSU to 91 yards of offense (1.9 yds/play)

Also:

Spartans did not score on offense; points came on a fumble return and a KO return
Cardon Johnson tore his achilles (again) and missed the remainder of the season; is back for his medical redshirt season.

DL Darrious Carter (suspension) remains out; CBs Stephen Tutt and Curtis Oliver returned to practice this week -- status for Saturday undetermined.

NSU will start their 2nd string freshman QB; starter suspended 1 game for kicking an opponent in the head during last week's win vs. D2 Virginia State.

What a bone headed thing to do especially in a game against a D2 opponent knowing you had JMU the following week which will probably be the biggest and most important home game of the season with Hampton off the schedule this year.

Not a bonehead move but moreso a misunderstanding. QB lost his mouthpiece and an opposing player was attempting to put his foot on it and the QB went to put his foot on it instead, ala the alleged “kick.”

According to Tuesday's Virginian-Pilot his coach says he deserved the suspension, though the action wasn't blatant. The MEAC office issued the suspension.

I'm with you. Was trying to pace the beer drinking to be able to type full two syllable words at least through the 3rd quarter. Don't think I'm gonna make it.

Watch out for the comeback- MVSU twitter says: "The score in this one is not indicative of Valley's talent."

do teams ever do this? i can't recall it happening, but maybe it has. i would put a fair amount of money that if it's not wrapped up tonight, it will be cancelled. messes with both teams' schedules to play 3 quarters on what should be an off day.

So JMU couldn't cover the spread against a MEAC opponent? Weak.

I'm fully expecting to hear Jay Walker citing this score in November as part of his reasoning for why JMU should be seeded lower on the selection show.

Before or after talking about the experience of a playoff run?

How did this game count? You can't tell me if Norfolk was up 10-7 at the same point in time that it was called they would have counted it...

NSU officials agreed to forfeit the final three quarters and credit JMU with the win.

They agreed to terminate the game - technically not a forfeit. Both schools have to agree to it.

Well, FWIW, quotes today indicated that JMU had already made arrangements for hotels and was willing to play on Sunday. The other team was not. Sounds like a forfeit.

Also of note, not confirmed, but word is that the NSU backup QB was being evaluated for possible concussion during the break. If that is true, they would've had a 3rd string true freshman going the remaining 3 quarters vs JMU already down 17-0.

Tomato, Tom-ah-toe. Coach Houston said JMU signaled they were willing to play all night or Sunday. NSU officials, not so much.
