With a quality loss to a top-tier opponent, Georgia State remains in the driver’s seat for its national championship drive.

Sun Belt Billy back in his natural habitat.
What is he going to do when they leave the conference? I guess time will tell.

Welp that’s my day in a nutshell folks. At least our offense didn’t look like a sack of sand

Your offense is good, just wayyyyy too many delay of games

SUNBELT BILLY CANNOT STOP. It's nice seeing a man back in his natural habitat

Camden Coleman should stay QB1 with JC subbing in on Short Yardage/Goal Line packages.

I’m starting to get why James Madison wants to leave the Sun Belt

u/Electronic_Film_2837 1h ago
The conference used to be pretty good with app state making upsets against teams like a&m.
But it seems it’s falling off too much

I'm looking forward to my two schools not being in the same conference again. It's been awkward.

u/John_Delasconey 1h ago
To be fair, isn’t that one stat from last year’s playoffs that shows that 20% of a JMU student tuition goes to the athletics department. JMU should be a generallyundefeated G6 school every season with a budget like that.
8
u/Epsevv James Madison • Old Dominion 1h ago
Yes this is true, and it's true that JMU significantly out spends the Sunbelt.
However... compare the overall cost of tuition for the large public universities in Virginia. UVA and VT are still way more expensive. GMU, CNU, VCU and others are also around the same cost as JMU.

u/OSRSTheRicer James Madison Dukes 1h ago
JMU is outspent by 15 other G6 teams lmfao.
4 other sunbelt programs spend almost identical amounts.
JMUs tuition is still lower than many VA schools.
6
u/No_Recognition_5266 James Madison Dukes 1h ago
No tuition goes to athletics. It’s the student fees we get dogged for, but most G6 programs have a high subsidy percentage (at least 10 worse than JMU as an absolute dollar amount).

We broke the ranked SBC curse last year so that doesn’t worry me. Billy knows how to prepare a team for Boone

u/SlapNuts1999 Virginia Tech • James Madison 2h ago
Hell of a win. Scoring at the end was huge to carry momentum into Thursday. Fuck the Sun Belt for scheduling our game against App on a short week

u/TrustMeIKnowThisOne Troy Trojans • /r/CFB Bug Finder 2h ago
Damn then go play on ESPN+ rest of the SBC will take the ESPN U broadcast.
4
u/DignansOut James Madison Dukes 1h ago
Yeah the reason we’re scheduled on three straight thursdays is because our CFP run made us a showcase team for the sunbelt. I don’t love the Thursday games but I also understand it’s more a compliment than an insult.
2
u/No_Recognition_5266 James Madison Dukes 1h ago
I think it’s frustrating because JMU is a linear draw on Saturdays, we didn’t need this game or the next two relegated to weeknight for that. At this rate, only JMU’s FCS game will have been on ESPN+

u/midnight-architect7 James Madison • Mississippi S… 2h ago
No. Someone told me the same thing when I said we were gonna obliterate Georgia State. It’s ok to say we’re going to crush everyone when that’s what we’ve done for 7 weeks.
3
u/No_Recognition_5266 James Madison Dukes 1h ago
We didn’t crush Ga Southern. There are tough places to play in the SBC even when the team isn’t great. I also still remember losing to App in Cignetti’s last year
4
u/SlapNuts1999 Virginia Tech • James Madison 1h ago
Georgia State ain’t App. They’re going to do everything in their power to ruin our season again, just like they did in 2023. This may also be the last time we play in a while because we’re leaving the conference. It’s going to be a war

u/tacowithcheeese Virginia • James Madison 2h ago
We didn't crush Georgia Southern. App State, especially on the road is never an easy game. I still remember the college gameday game

u/midnight-architect7 James Madison • Mississippi S… 2h ago
If you wanna be pessimistic go ahead but we absolutely murdered them last year and they’re marginally better this season.
Shaming me for supporting our team is wild. Go die on another hill than being in the replies of someone saying our team is great

u/tacowithcheeese Virginia • James Madison 1h ago
Genuinely where did I shame you

Sorry you weren’t the guy I was responding to initially.

u/jestervalen James Madison Dukes 1h ago
I’m with you. I said after week 5 we’d be 6-0 after playing GA Southern and a bunch of JMU flairs defaulted to replying that we’ve never won in Statesboro

Georgia State has just gotten another delay of game due to late substitutions.

Man that was rough to see. Beautiful throw, great catch, but foot out of bounds.

GSU is no different from Charlotte. Drop this program to the FCS.

u/An_Animating_Cuber Georgia State • Georgia Tech 1h ago
Probably every school that people suggest to move down to the fcs would probably close their athletics departments due to the loss of funding that comes with moving down from the fbs

u/jharden10 Georgia State • Georgia 1h ago
We can't compete with our competition. I think GSU should eliminating the football program.

u/An_Animating_Cuber Georgia State • Georgia Tech 1h ago
You’ve got to keep in mind JMU is on another level, they’re probably only a couple of years away from being in a power conference, outside of today this Georgia state team has looked pretty good

Curt Cignetti never lost to Georgia State. Bob Chesney never lost to Georgia State. Billy Napier has never lost to Georgia State.
