If memory serves me, some Colonial Conference teams broadcast their games on CAA.TV for free. Might not be James Madison, but there's a chance that we'll be able to watch that one on a good stream.

No TV listed yet (not a surprise). JMU starts with a road trip to ODU 2 day before playing Rice. That's a much tougher prep game than Rice's Our Lady of the Lake 8 days prior.

Not sure if that will give them added toughness and game speed, or beat them up a bit with little rest time before the Rice game.

Another interesting scheduling quirk - Texas Southern plays at Rice 5 days before heading to Harrisonburg to play JMU. JMU's got 3 teams from the Gulf area (Louisiana's the third) travelling there in the first 2 weeks to play them. (And Texas Southern then plays at Louisiana 4 days after Louisiana visits JMU. It's almost like all of the programs worked together on their schedules.)
