While JMU is the NC, they are still savage Dillweeds. I still hate 'em!

JMU fan here, couldn't resist reading and replying to this thread when someone pointed it out on our board, especially reading the ones like this... Cracked me up, some of you guys are nuts(but hey so are some of ours). I love to hate you guys, it's a really fun rivalry between two schools/teams that are both very good in very different ways.

It's pretty insane to make us out to be a bunch of classless tools for calling you guys RU, Ticks, etc. when you guys call us a women's college, Pukes, Barneys, etc. though. I certainly don't think any of those names on either side cross a line in any way, I mean do you just not like sports rivalries?

College GameDay, especially at an FCS school, is huge, and our fanbase did an awesome job taking advantage of it. Of course we're upset we lost that game, but that doesn't take away how awesome it is to get that kind of recognition from ESPN.

I could go on and on, but this has already gotten a little long anyway so thanks to those that cheered for us or were at least respectful. For what it's worth, I cheered for you guys to make it to Frisco too, a rivalry rematch of a great game for the championship would've been awesome. When you guys are in and we aren't, I'm pretty much neutral... I don't cheer for you guys like I would other CAA schools or maybe ODUh, but I don't cheer against you guys like I would cheer like hell against VCU or GMCC. You guys have some fans that I'd say cross the line just like we have some that do, but I don't think either fanbase is like that as a whole like GMCC and VCU are. Mostly a good, fun rivalry. Definitely don't see it going down hill with Kevin Johnson at QB.

I watched the game on Saturday. I was cheering for JMU all the way. I have worked with some JMU grads and I have known others. They are good people. My favorite nickname for the JMU Dukes is the JMU Dillweeds. Once everyone graduates, they are pretty similar, that is except for the William & Mary Tribelets. We just need to win 2 more games against them and the series is tied. They need to extend Laycock's contract for 40 more years.

Play us again and see what happens.

LOL. We were supposed to play again after 2010 but you guys backed out. You won't play us.

I love you so much. I'm being sincere. We should change our mascot to "The JMU Savage Dillweeds" - it's so good.

It wouldn't be a game if y'all played us again. I can't wait until it happens.

1. It won't happen, VT won't play us again after we beat them. Maybe way down the road if and when we've been FBS for a while, but not any time soon.

2. If Richmond had beaten Maryland last year and then Maryland fans were always responding "Oh yeah, well we'd win if we played again!" how dumb would you think those Maryland fans looked? Pretty dumb, right? That's how you look... Except worse because VT football is supposed to be above Maryland football. The number of national championships does say otherwise, but I'm sure you guys consider yourself head and shoulders above Maryland.
