Yeah, but they only lost 2 games, enjoyed a playoff run at home, had thousands of fans travel to Texas to watch them play, got great press and a national broadcast game on freakin ABC... I dream of such for the Monarchs.
Seriously must have missed the great press and certainly didnt watch the game. I dont think many people know (or care) what station they played on.
That is certainly no dream of mine.

We've moved past d2 ball. NSU is right down the road if you want to watch a team go for an FCS championship. ODU may have had our worst season ever, but our schedule in 1 year has more quality opponents than jmu will face in almost a decade. We have moved on.

I feel like a pretty big sports fan and I had no Idea the game was today. I had no idea who they played. That might tell me how important it was.

RE: Rahnes Staff Discussion
Seriously? Maybe it’s because I don’t live in Hampton Roads and know a number of JMU folks, but it’s been all over my social media and news feeds. Saw the game playing in several places as I was out and about today and watched much of the second half. It was a great game. Easy to watch as a national broadcast on a major network. Great camera work, announcers and production. The stadium was full and a rowdy crowd. Plus it was a fantastic game. Sorry you missed it. I’m no JMU fan, but certainly would love to see our Monarch football team playing 3 or 4 nationally broadcast games in a year on abc and espn. That kind of exposure is priceless.

I couldnt watch it. Cut the cord a while ago and dont have anything but hulu and espn+.
Only my jmu alumni friends shared anything about the game. Which makes sense.

Dollar General sells a very small antenna that is no bigger than my hand and weighs only a few ounces for $10 that works great. It is much better than any other table top antenna that I have ever had. I can pick up at least 35 stations with mine and they are all crystal clear without having to do any adjustments to the antenna.

Last month we gave one to a family member that lives in Rural Hall, NC and within 5 minutes they had 26 stations with all of them as clear as if they were coming from cable TV.

In my shop I use two apps for over the air channels. FakeGPS and Locast. Set the FakeGPS to a market Locast broadcasts from. I usually do DC or Atlanta markets.

They probably would have defeated ODU this season.

ODU was 1-11 and barely won against NSU. Stating who could have defeated ODU this year is not saying much. The program was not meeting FBS standards and appropriate actions were taken.
The only reason ODU didn't have to "worry" about any team playing North Dakota State on ABC (this past season) is simply because they didn't play them.
