Semifinal: SDSU @ JMU

[cx500d]

2nd string in the 3rd quarter.

[centennial]

Pull Christion.

[jmuwishyouhadadukedog]

.... can we just call it quits here?

[JimmyJack]

Ha ha ha ha!!!!!!
8 turnovers!!!!

I don't think I have ever seen that many turnovers by one team before.

Stay tuned...there's a full quarter left.

[GoBlueHens83]

Maybe just go to a running clock in the 4th quarter. Wow.

[WileECoyote06]

Don't feel bad for SDSU. Feel bad for the rest of FCS. It's a two horse race until something changes somewhere....

We tried to tell y'all. -Signed, MEAC fans

[JimmyJack]

This game has been over since the second long TD run. Why is SDSU still throwing it? Clearly, JMU can cover better than anybody the Jacks have seen this year. Should have been running it since about midway through the third.

[centennial]

7 by Christion.

[th0m]

If you didn't feel bad for us, don't feel bad for them...

I feel bad for both squads. Play this game tomorrow and it will not be the same. We still win but geez. Have to say though, we let them hang for a long time in the first half.

Yep. NDSU has good coaching and will stick with the run if it's working. Which is why I think that will be a good game

[steelbison]

TC is gutless choker. Always has been. He's a front runner. Looks great when everything is going his way. When things aren't he sucks. Always been that way. Who actually loses the ball while throwing? Twice? That's just him being a loser. Winners never curl up in the fetal position like he does.

[Go Lehigh TU Owl]

Well that was a terrible throw. Now the JV game begins...

[CockyGeek]

Soooo. A cupcake or not?

[Bisonator]

I honestly don't know who wins this game but I picked JMU. They have the edge because they are at home and have the better defense. If they don't turn the ball over and play sound defense they should make it back to Frisco. SDSU can put up points in a hurry but seem inconsistent at times against better defenses. Not to mention they tend to choke in big games so they got that going for them.
I called it! TC should be purple by the end of this game as much as he's choked!xlolx

TC has definitely been awful today. But I think it's a bit much for people to call him gutless. And he has beaten NDSU twice.

Could just make JMU and NDSU go play in FBS bowl games (they're better than 75% of the teams playing in then anyway). We'll do our own playoffs....minus Bison and Dukes.

Ugh. Burn the tape. Nice game JMU! So, Weber State was clearly an anomaly and wake up

[Henny]

Note to the Bizons - You can see SDSU made a fatal flaw by taking defensive chances against JMU.

The Dukes are most vulnerable when you slow em down, frustrate them and make them take chances on O. Schor does get happy feet and is very uncomfortable when his receivers aren't wide open.

UD set the blueprint, you need to follow it!

[Schism55]

Bison stomped a mudhole in the Jacks when it mattered.

[McNeese72]

I thought the top Southland teams knew how to play offense?

Not all. McNeese was 5th in total defense in the nation and 1 in Rushing Defense. Our problem was offense and the offensive line in particular.

I think those five turnovers, while they didn't result in a lot of points, really took it out of the defense.

[Scooter]

Nine?!?!?!?

[Serpentor]

Jeebus, are the announcers STILL talking about potential miracles comebacks after Jacks throw their fifth interception?

[jmuwishyouhadadukedog]

What is the single game turnover record?

[mcveyrl]

Tomorrow will determine if JMU is here to stay at the top or if their win against NDSU in Fargo last year was out of the norm. Let's be honest, since that game the best team they played has been Weber State (no, Youngstown wasn't that good last year. They had to go to double OT to beat Wofford and they got a miracle catch to beat EWU), and JMU looked very beatable in that game. Can they repeat a stellar post season performance against a top tier FCS team?

Turns out that today determined that SDSU is a pretender just like SHSU and all of their complaints about having to play the Bizon every year are empty. You’re just not good enough. Also turns out the best team we’ve played all year is still Weber State.

For the record, prior to this game we went 8-0 in the CAA two years in a row (never been done before), we’ve won 25 in a row, including a NC and beating NDSU in Fargo. I thought that was pretty good up until your post...

You just never know, but I need to wallow in your guys misery for a few hours and then it is back to reality.

[JimmyJack]

I'm going there: This was a really fun year of Jackrabbit football. It has been awesome watching guys like Goedert, Mengarelli, Wieneke, and Soulek play. The Jacks made big strides this year, this game not withstanding. They'll be back. The program has been on a clear upward trajectory ever since SDSU moved up.

Good luck to JMU. I'm rooting for NDSU and I think their ball control running game and outstanding defense will win it for them in a very close, hard-fought game between two great teams.

Depends on your taste for style of living & possibly return on investments. Hoboken has been transformed over the past 20-25 years from a dilapidated middle class town into a trendy alternative for the millennial generation working on Wall Street. Same transformation happening in Jersey City which was as close to an arm pit city as you could find. Still has its sections, but in the end it’s city life which doesn’t appeal to many of the MVFC fans. Real estate prices are through the roof in Hoboken. It’s not the Frank Sinatra town in many parts anymore.

That said I live far away from all this with farms & rolling hills all around me in the Garden State. Who knew? xpeacex

[JMU-MRD-DAD]

Good season South Dakota State.

[caribbeanhen]

tough game to pick

Reasons to pick JMU
Home team
better Defense
better Coach
been there and done this
Schor wins alot

Reasons to pick SDSU
JMU showed last week they are beatable
Real skill at skill positons
the JMU OL is not that good right now
JMU offense is out of synch just a bit

the wildcard will be the refs - if we see another **** show like what happened for the Sammy Kennesaw game ...... it just detracts from the game when it turns into the yellow rain show

I thought it would be a close game, must of been reading to many Valley threads, I mean South Dakota State did beat the Bison, things snowballed yesterday on SDSU, despite all the turnovers though, JMU clearly the more physical and talented team...

I'm not sure that I've watched a game where one team had 10 turnovers, but one take away for me is that JMU's offensive production in the first half was pretty meager considering all the SDSU mistakes. I was at this game, as well as the UNH @ SDSU in Brookings, the contrast in the quality of play for SDSU QB Taryn Christion was unfathomable. Most of the interceptions he threw were just poor decisions, poor throws, or both. He was facing moderate pressure from the JMU rush, not nearly as dominant as I seen in many of JMU's games this season. The second half was a blow out like we see in many games where a team is trailing big and making mistakes from pressing too hard and trying to do too much, too fast when the opportunities are not there.

Bottom line is that I don't think we should take too much from this game and apply it to the Championship game.

I thought that SDSU moved the ball well but they couldn't stop shooting themselves in the foot. It just completely came off the rails for them, that D had to be tired, and even after the first 5 they were still in the game which was amazing to me.

Christion seems to have a tendency to be a head case from time to time but I wonder if he wasn't completely healthy? I know his throwing arm/hand got dinged up a bit towards the end of the UNH game. To see him drop the ball without getting it knocked away from him 3 different times was just wierd. Regardless though, like you said, he looked like a completely different player this week compared to last but JMU's defense tends to have that effect on QBs.

[th0m]

Yeah I think early on the JMU defense tends to make a point of getting to the QB to try and rattle them, especially mobile quarterbacks. Worked with Carbone (Stony Brook), not really with Cantwell, and obviously with Christion. If you watch the post game presser, Houston said they got to him the very first play.

are you saying he's not mentally healthy? Seemed fine otherwise

[Professor Chaos]

I'm pretty sure anyone who commits 9 turnovers in a game on their own isn't or wouldn't be mentally healthy. I just thought it was odd for the ball to slip out his hands 3 times without his arms/hands being hit. Whether it was physical or mental he was hot garbage out there yesterday.

It will interesting to see how good he is without his stud TE & WR out there. I don’t watch him a lot, but when I have he’s spit the bit more than impressed. xpeacex

[BigGoosie13]

Our winning streak is over, I can officially post here again. Congrats Dukes on the ass whooping, I'll be pulling for you in the NC. Somebody needs to tell TC to towel off the KY after his morning spank session.

[PurpleStreamers]

This game has been over since the second long TD run. Why is SDSU still throwing it? Clearly, JMU can cover better than anybody the Jacks have seen this year. Should have been running it since about midway through the third.

This is the thing I never understood watching this in person. SDSU was gaining chunk yardage running the ball in the first half, especially cause JMU was often pass-blitzing a fifth defender so there were holes at the second level. Even when it was 28-10, there was a ton of time left, but it seemed almost liked the coaches panicked with the play-calling.

By the way, every single one of the Jacks fans we met Saturday were great and hope to see them again someday!

[jmufan999]

few takeaways:

*SDSU's OL was the best run blocking unit I've seen all year. i don't think we were missing run fits, they were just very big and very strong.

*forgetting the times when TC just lost the ball for no reason, the pass rush had a lot to do with his other errors. if you go back and watch the tape, it's not always sacks that get you. there were countless hurries where he's throwing off of his back foot or throwing quicker than he'd like. we've seen this in pretty much every QB we've faced.

*the noise didn't seem to affect SDSU at all, and this was really no surprise given their history in Fargo.

Yet if you listen to the knuckle draggers commenting on our game with Weber, we have NO pass rush. Our sack total for the season and interception total is a complete distortion of the truth. It's all done with smoke a mirrors. Hope they keep on underestimating us.

Go ahead and point out the posts by said "knuckle draggers". I don't recall anyone saying that JMU's defense isn't absolutely stellar. Hell, before the Weber game I'm pretty sure someone referred to it as "possibly the best defense in FCS history". Quit trying to manufacture outrage.

Congrats to the Jacks on their best season ever, first semi finals appearance and 11 win season. Today stings but you have a lot to be proud of this season.

I don’t think stings really covers it......

It's like they have an inferiority complex. How dare someone say any objective thing about JMU? We should all crown them the FCS champs at the start of the year. Never mind they almost lost to Big Sky #2, or that they've had bad games against CAA opponents. It's almost like they were blowing out opponents by 40 every game.

Just watch the butt hurt now that I wrote this.

They come on here and bisonville expecting reverence from everyone else. Most of them are uneducated about football, so it's not like we can even talk shop with them.

Without looking it up let's see one of them call what defense they run. And no man coverage isn't a defense. What about offense? What are some of the plays? Crickets.

[Outsider1]

Either way the game goes it is going to be good to watch! Both teams are elite in FCS right now. Both teams are physical. Both teams can be fast. They both have strengths and weaknesses, but they deserve to be playing each other at this point.

Are you OK? I like you. I think you’re a good person. Would you like to discuss football on here? With me? I’ll only call you kind names... how about that, champ? Did someone actually ruin your day on Bisonville expecting reverence from an opposing fan base? I hate that. I mean it. Smile, friend!

Your opinion... Glenn Warner or Joe Carr more important to the sport?

Despite their record, I believe the Browns made the correct decision to move away from Ironton, OH.

It must have been cool to see the Transcontinental Railroad completed the same year Rutgers and Princeton played the first rudimentary version of the game.

Personal note, my dad used to buy my brother and me a new football every Thanksgiving. Great memories of throwing them around in the yard.

I'll ask a question here, even though this is not the correct thread. NDSU seems to have drawn up a lot of passing formations from the backfield. What does JMU defense play when it's getting burned? What is the alternate base defense? When you lost to UNC last year did you change the defense?

[Madisonian]

I think you’ll see us stick to the base 4-2-5. With the occasional spy or 4-3-4. There appeared to be a fair amount of that for the last two games given the perceived mobility of the QBs. We literally line up and the opposing offense knows what’s coming but has to stop it. You won’t see defenders change formation once set. Very quick to the ball and attempt to limit yards after catch. We didn’t change the D after UNC. At the time, our new coaching staff was still implementing the change from a terrible, ineffective 3 man front from the previous coaching regime. UNC had a few high performing future NFLers at skill positions. We were beating them for much of the first half of that game before a couple of breakdowns over the top as they were that much bigger, faster, stronger. It wasn’t until the Villanova game in 2016 before we started feeling good about this team’s defense. I’d say plays where we get burned is when you get can get a linebacker mismatch with an overloaded side/speedster. They’re still very quick but the man-man does require no slips or temporary brain deficiencies. The NDSU offense is going to be a nightmare to prep for given all of the playmakers. You going? I’ll be there.

I like your posts on here and think you’re a pretty level headed poster, but I’m having a hard time figuring out what you’re getting at here. Do I need to know these things in order to be a fan?

There are varying degrees of football knowledge. On the one hand, you have my wife, who has attended football games via the band since she was in middle school but still struggles with offense and defense terminology. She’s a great JMU fan though. On the other end of the spectrum is say...Mike Houston. None of us are Mike Houston. And then there’s everybody in between. Are you saying that unless we’re at a certain threshold we can’t even discuss football with you? That seems slightly arrogant - which again, seems odd to me coming from you.

I should add that we have struggled with guys coming out of the backfield, notably against Weber State.

This season, JMU has not been getting burned in the pass game, except perhaps by Weber St's TE, so you question is a somewhat moot. But JMU almost always has CBs in press coverage on the opponents top two receivers and it looked to me that they were using a 3rd DB in press coverage who was way undersized on SDSU TE #86. Since I believe #86 is 1st Team AA, had Christion not been dropping the ball or throwing it up for grabs that could have been a favorable matchup for SDSU. I assume that the Safeties are normally in some sort of Cover 2 Zone, but whatever it is, they react quickly to the play. JMU LBs are faster than many FCS DBs so they do a good job of picking up stray receivers and roaming RBs.

I'm sure that NDSU has an excellent pass defense as well, the things I noticed in the SHSU game was the excellent pass rush, the fact that NDSU defenders run to the ball as fast as JMU; however, the tackling was not as sure - it took a 2nd and 3rd guy to bring down a ball carrier more frequently than it does JMU.

we actually did ok against the TE, holding him to 5/47/0 TDs. a couple of the WRs made big plays. some of them were mistakes by us, but a few were just phenomenal offensive plays. we had trouble getting pressure on the QB in that game which was so out of character for us. i give a lot of credit to Weber. that was the difference between WSU and SDSU: WSU's QB didn't have enough pressure and Christion was harassed all day.

One of the long TDs was a wheel route out of the backfield to their RB. Raven went for the ball and should’ve played the receiver. Was a spectacular throw by Cantwell.
