2005 road games you are most looking forward to

**blackfordpu** · July 19th, 2005, 11:22 AM

Mine would have to be:

Sam Houston @ McNeese - another good trip to Lake Charles
Sam Houston @ Tx State - looking forward to a great game
Sam Houston @ Northern Colorado
Sam Houston @ Texas Tech - hopefully going to witness a big upset

I am going to try to make all of them but those are the big 4 I am looking forward to the most.

Umass @ Colgate, It should be a win, sorry 13

Umass @ Maine
Umass @ Delaware, both Maine and Delaware should be great games
Umass @ Army, Would love to see Umass knock off a I-A team :nod:
Umass @ Hofstra, Hofstra will have a much better team this year. It should be a good one.

How could you leave off SHSU @ Univ of Houston. I think we can win this ballgame.

EKU & LSU

10/29... UD @ Maine

11/12... UD @ W&M

**JohnStOnge** · July 19th, 2005, 12:07 PM

That's easy. Georgia Southern. Given what things were like last year it'll probably be ugly but it's still a Mecca of I-AA football.

**blukeys** · July 19th, 2005, 12:07 PM

UD @ Nova. Although this one always seems like home game.

**GannonFan** · July 19th, 2005, 12:19 PM

Well, the only two I'm rock-solid about going to - Towson and nova. Towson, not for the quality of the game but just because it's a new venue for me - never been down there. And the nova game, of course, because we can't stand those rotten **!*!*Bleeps from nova.

Maine's always too far (and the game's on TV anyway) and W&M's got rotten sight lines (and it's a little far this year - new addition to the family and all).

All of JMU's road games will be interesting in 2005. We will find out if the Dukes continue to be the road warriors in 2005 after what happened in the 2004 playoffs.

Sept. 10 ~ JMU @ Coastal Carolina
Will the Chanticleers show the rest of I-AA that they are for real by knocking off the defending national champions? This will be the first matchup between these two teams. The Chanticleers will visit Bridgeforth Stadium in Harrisonburg in 2007.

Oct. 1 ~ JMU @ Hofstra
The surprise team of 2004 meets a team that could be the surprise team of 2005. The Dukes have not lost on the Pride's home field since 1999.

Oct. 15 ~ JMU @ Massachusetts
Like Hofstra, the surprise team of 2004 meets a team that could be the surprise team of 2005. The Dukes have not won on the Minutemen's home field since 1987. In 1989 they finished in a tie with a score of 28-28.

Oct. 22 ~ JMU @ Delaware
This will be an intense game for both sides as the 2004 national champions travel north to the 2003 national champions. The Dukes have not won on the Blue Hens' home field since 1994.

Nov. 5 ~ JMU @ W&M
The Dukes go to Williamsburg for W&M's first game under permanent lights hoping to once again spoil the Tribe's night as JMU did in the 2004 national semifinals. The Dukes have not lost on the Tribe's home field since 2001.

Hyping this a bit? JMU has only played at Hofstra twice all time, in 1999 and 2002, losing the first and winning the latter. In that light, not losing at Hofstra since 1999 is a bit less glamorous.
