JMU @ Delaware Game Thread

End of half, 3-0 UDel

So is Delaware just playing bad, or JMU up for this game?

It looks to me that JMU's defensive front is simply better than Delaware's offensive line. Period.

That couldn't be right. I mean, JMU is simply the worst thing Jon has seen in a while...

The only way this game could be close is if some supernatural force took over for JMU. Thank God that's happened and we're keeping it close.

TD JMU!!

First in 13 quarters!

Lead 7-3, first time since the second quarter against Richmond

I never said that...

And Props to JMU for playing much better this week - what, did I give you some locker room material?

Must have. I'm sure Mickey posts our stuff!

And yea, it was a little bit of hyperbole.

Got the link to work, but it was very choppy. It's probably the laptop I'm running at work though. Old laptops, but they work for the ticket system at remote sites in the McLeod Center and UNIDome for events. Oddly enough, I'm watching ESPN360 with no problem

Delaware FG good, 7-6 JMU

[SunCoastBlueHen]

Nice drive by the Hens stalls at the JMU 8. They settle for the FG...

7-6 Dukes

[mcveyrl]

Hey SCBH, stands look kind of empty in the end zone.

What gives?

[DukeJack]

Holy shit...

65yd completion, McCarter fumbles inside the five, Delaware returns it to their 42

Not sure - it certainly doesn't look like the weather should really be an excuse.

[mcveyrl]

Holy ****...

Craziest play of the year!

[mcveyrl]

Deep pass to McCarter to the UD 10.

[DukeJack]

TD JMU

7 yd pass to Newman

EDIT: XP NO good, 13-6 JMU

[SunCoastBlueHen]

Delaware is flat out getting beat in this game. I'm very disappointed in the Hen's effort.

13-6 JMU after missed PAT

[mcveyrl]

No matter what happens, this has to be giving Thorpe a LOT of confidence

[DukeJack]

Agreed

A few early overthrows, but nothing like he's been doing the last couple games. Actually throwing to Caussin, downfield completions to McCarter, very good signs for him. I still think he has the talent to be one of our greatest quarterbacks ever, but only if he can learn from the last few games and realize the mistakes he's been making. So far, it looks like that's the case.

End of 3rd, 13-6 JMU

[mcveyrl]

End of 3rd.

13-6 Dukes.

[SunCoastBlueHen]

Delaware is getting their collective asses kicked by the Dukes right now.

[DukeJack]

3 yd TD run for Jamal Sullivan

20-6 JMU

[mcveyrl]

TD Dukes!!! A nice clock eating drive.

19-6 pending EP.

PAT Good

[DukeJack]

Wow, 7th sack on the day for the Dukes and second in a row

Uhoh, DJ Bryant is down...and hopping/running off. He'll be fine

[mcveyrl]

Pickoff in the endzone.

Dukes ball. Can run it out now, I think.

[DukeJack]

JMU takes a safety, the Hens will get the ball with about 45 sec left and down 20-5

[DukeJack]

Delaware fails to convert on fourth down, Dukes kneel to end the ballgame at 20-8

First win in Newark since 1994 and first CAA win of the year

About time
