James Madison vs. Virginia Game Highlights | 2023 ACC Football

[@alexanderhale4393]

This team is hot. Glad to see them riding the momentum from last season.

[@Ze_Moose]

Weren't they recently promoted? 😮 Unbelievable

[@bitfenix90]

James Madison is living up to that pre-season #1 ranking. This proves all their national championships are well-deserved and congrats to Virginia for scheduling such a historic world-beater like JMU. Most little schools like Virginia would shy away and schedule cream-puffs. There were great runs-after-catch on both sides and amazing demonstrations of refusal-to-tackle - Virginia proved to be better at that, and refusal to cover wide open receivers near the goal line. That's a lot of great coaching, there.

[@pf6797]

They didn’t schedule us for 40 years, and they won’t for another 40 now.

[@blapkin8301]

Well said

[@Ze_Moose]

​@@pf6797why you think they didn't before? 🤔

[@TheFatGamer458]

Calling Virginia little is crazy

[@bitfenix90]

@@TheFatGamer458 Well - THEY think they're puny and pathetic - why else go after a dead-beat no-name full of high-school rejects opponent like JMU? Virginia KNOWS how pathetic they are - "We need to find SOMEONE we can trounce! We're so horrible ourselves - !" And this was done in the quiet confines long ago in an office. This is little, pathetic Virginia's mentality. And this is the result of little Virginia's thinking.

Was at the game, JMU fans while much fewer than UVA fans were much louder. And after the rain delay the stadium was 90% empty but lots of the JMU fans stuck around.

[@uranium54321]

Yeah 100%, as a UVA fan who stayed after the rain delay I’m kinda pissed nobody else came back. Idc how bad this team is, when they blow it and lose I want to be there for them

They are trash. UVa is trash and they won by a POINT

[@uranium54321]

I actually really like that idea, JMU is arguably a power 5 calibre team and DEFINITELY an ACC calibre team

[@backwardscompatible4810]

I was at the game. Some UVA fans were terribly rude to JMU fans (living up to their stuck up reputation). The vast majority of JMU fans stuck around after the 80 minute rain delay, while the vast majority of UVA fans (especially their student fans) left the game when the rains came. JMU fans were so much louder and more enthusiastic than UVA fans. JMU came out after the delay wanting to win this. UVA came out trying not to lose it. There was also a fumble by UVA that even the announcers were stunned when the refs let UVA keep possession. The game shouldn't have been that close. JMU overcame the refs, one terrible coaching decision, and took this win. They are currently the best football program in the state, and it shows.

[@chscelebrity8325]

Michigan would absolutely destroy them. They are not the best in state

I’m loving JMU’s defense they get after it every play it’s fun to watch, obviously the deep passes and long runs are to but when the defense is getting sacks like that and really applying pressure on the other QB it’s very entertaining

[@Moose6340]

For those that don't know...JMU beat Virginia in Charlottesville in a massive upset in 1982 when JMU had barely moved up to Division I-AA, 21-17. Virginia won, again in Charlottesville, in 1983. They would not schedule JMU after that for FORTY YEARS despite the two schools being sixty miles apart. They could've scheduled us as their FCS game anytime they wanted and JMU would've gladly come to Scott Stadium and taken the money but they wouldn't do it. So the Dukes coming into Charlottesville, with all that emotion over UVa's three fallen players, then getting punched in the mouth early in the third quarter by Colandrea's outstanding passing, and THEN riding out a weather delay to come back and win it? It's a lot bigger and more meaningful than a 36-35 win would indicate. Virginia fans are generally pretty arrogant about UVa being "THE University" and "Mister Jefferson's University" regardless of how the athletic programs are doing, and there were some Charlottesville-area journalists who were extremely condescending coming into the game (when they had no right to be, UVa was down BAD last year). Us being able to take them down a notch felt really really good.

[@Roaring-Run-Homestead]

Elliott is the sole reason UVA is terrible. We need a better coach. His coaching is not up to D1 level.

[@uranium54321]

Not the sole reason imo, we lost a TON of key players after last year (if we still had Fentrell Cypress, Nick Jackson, and Billy Kemp we would’ve won at least 2 of our first 4 games) and in particular our OLine and Secondary are horrendous. Colandrea will probably be good in the future but isn’t quite there yet. Playcalling is an issue, but imo the OC deserves as much blame as Elliott there, if not more.

[@lauramorris3549]

I was there at the game

[@joshbeezley4158]

I'm a Virginia fan and Elliot needs to go. 4 penalties on the final defensive stand? Unacceptable. Looking at their schedule, I don't see a winnable game. Not even William & Mary.

[@extragoogleaccount6061]

For the long-term success of the program, this might’ve been a win. And the William and Mary game is a chance to guarantee he is gone. Some good playmakers though

[@travismiller5581]

This was a Bad loss for UVA but a Quality win for JMU!

[@uranium54321]

JMU was favored by 6 points before the game, if UVA won it would’ve been a bad loss for JMU lol That being said UVA is excellent at managing to find the most painful ways to lose possible, so I agree this is a “bad loss” in the sense they blew a 12-point 4Q lead
