No one in the field wants any part of JMU. Home or away, it doesn't matter to the team. It does matter to the fans and we deserve a home game at 9-3

We only deserve a home game if we have bid more than our opponent in round one. It is completely objective when then bids are opened.

We'll see if JMU is determined to act like FCS big boys do.
Round 2 will be on the road due to seeding, but round 3 could be another bid scenario if "upsets" occur in the bracket.

Whatever our "great" bid is this year still probably won't outbid Liberty. I expect them to bid damn near 100k for each round. We won't outbid that. That's not being a negative nancy, that's being realistic.

If they only bid $100k, they will be left in the dust. You aren't even in the right hemisphere.

I'm liking your positive outlook and confidence and I really want to believe it. Still there's that part of me that knows our bidding history coupled with our lousy pairing luck. It's the irresistible force meeting the immovable object. I just want to be happy at 11:00 tomorrow morning.

Maybe we'll get lucky and get that last seed (inset Dumb and Dumber "so there's a chance" gif)

But I don't expect JMU will outbid Liberty, if that's who we end up matched against. Given our bidding history and hearing Bourne at the Stony Brook game talking about not wanting to "take a bath" on a first round playoff game, my expectation is that the JMU bid may be "competitive" this time but probably not a slam dunk.

Hoping to hear some good news at 11!

Ok, NOW I'm buying in!

I fully support that idea and would be willing to help

Confirmed teepee from teepee owner. Whether Harrisonburg or Lynchburg, we'll be doing this!
