Do we beat App and hand JMU the East? Or do we sandbag and keep them out? Assuming App doesn’t run into another monsoon and craps the bed.

Rule in life...play to win

So…. You’re saying that Marshall can’t lose without throwing it?

Don’t worry. GS will beat App State anyways. Play to win. Beating App State is like the only thing Clay Helton does pretty consistently.

Game of the week, hands down. Southern & App may as well start the game thread today

I think most everyone in both fan bases are expecting GaSo to win this one just based on history. Year we beat Michigan we lost to GaSo. Year we beat UNC and USC, we lost to GaSo. Year we beat Texas A&M and then Troy on Gameday, we lost to GaSo. Seems they just won’t let us be happy.

Play to win…EVERY TIME! Why is this even a question?????

This ^

If App does run into another monsoon hopefully their OC has learned his lesson and doesnt try to continually go deep i. Pouring rain and 20+ mph winds. I thought our OC was stubborn with the constant runs up the middle going nowhere hut theirs wouldn't change his game plan in a nor'easter.

There's always that one 'special' fan that probably secretly roots for Morgantown....

No. Guaranteeing we can give you the game. You haven’t won here in FBS, however, at any point. But sure turn a fun hypothetical into some kind of disrespect to let everyone know how insecure you are.

If you had the in-laws I have, you’d root for WVU too, as your decidedly second team! Those people bleed blue and gold. My blood runs green, my friend, but I keep the peace!

You just said that to a guy that actually roots for Morgantown, idiot. It’s right under his name. I was just having fun thinking of ways to screw over JMU. The dilemma is if it’s worth shooting yourself in the foot to lock them out. It’s not a serious proposal. Thought that was evident. Oh well might have been a fun discussion if you guys weren’t stiffs.

You always want to win…no matter what. This is for the history books and head-to-head records.

People are talking about saving face with JMU, but a coach who was 13-19 in CUSA might run away with the west.

For you guys that are new App and GS week was always a mess in here. No thread was safe from being hi jacked with an App fan GS fan clubbing each other. Then it stopped. I think their mascots are shacking up and fans from both schools don't wanna break it up. Well that's SBC East football for ya!

And the hijacking of threads is why I will truly miss JMU fans

Insecure, nope. It’s just a game lol! Was giving you the needle….but I must have hit a nerve.

I mean, you generally play to win, but if Marshall lost by 20, odds are people would probably just assume it was a typical Marshall performance and you weren't taking or anything.

I purposely tell folks, my Top 3 are Marshall, O'State, and whoever plays WVU...
