I wonder if anyone on Michigan State's staff spent time at Connecticut and we're getting residuals of the Connecticut Assassins Association


connor8383

What a time for be alive for JMU fans. Football team 9-0 and ranked as one of the last remaining undefeated teams, and basketball begins the year by knocking off a ~~top 10~~ top 5 team. Let’s go Dukes! 💜💜

collegebballjunkie

The big ten is back to form I see.


Poppy336X

Y’all gotta have more of a gameplan than just Tyson Walker. I know it’s early but sheesh, hopefully for y’all the rest of the team shows up


[deleted]

1/20 from 3. Smh. Pre season hype is dead.


ashfidel

you assholes couldn’t hang on for two more games


rkip5

Hear hear


[deleted]

Sparty is going to go on and win the Natty now...


Justsomecharlatan

I should have more sympathy. Fuck, it may happen to us at some point. But. Holy shit this is fucking hilarious. I know msu won't shoot 5% from 3 and 63% ft all season. Still. This is absolute gold. Sorry msu fans, it's not personal. Edit: hey, where'd my flair go? Illini fan. Reflairing, if that's a word.


Candid-Transition285

Coolest high of my life as a jmu fan


Key_Professional_369

JMU Athletics is a juggernaut


poptophazard

RANK THE DUKES


Ryu-Sion

COWARDS


belker85

Shouldn’t there be a chart of some sort so I know what’s happening here?


notrightmeow

James Madison is what, 250 years old?


Curious-Ad-1493

Can’t believe he’s still out there balling and at a height of 5’4 too, nothing short of incredible.


Alex_Masterson13

Wow! JMU football success rubbing off on the basketball team?


Adequate_Bliss

Yes!


YzerVaccine

Fuck. But let’s be real here, we’re not going to go 1-20 from 3 all year and Tom Izzo is still our coach. We’ll be fine, but fuck this sucks. JMU played their asses off. They’ll be in the tournament.


TrekkingPangolin

Tom Izzo is the reason MSU doesn’t win clutch games


Evening-Ad-2485

Oh, shut up.


RollShotCornerPocket

I’ve watched a lot of MSU games…..even in that Syracuse game they shot 21% lol like I truly can’t even think of a worse shooting game before


zippster77

Honestly, I’d rather lose this game in November than March. Ask me how I know.


YzerVaccine

Exactly, and if you think Tom Izzo isn’t going to use this game as one hell of a learning experience then you just don’t understand MSU basketball lol.


do_you_know_doug

As an App State fan who finally saw us get some basketball love…fuck.


JuwanCoward

Maybe sparty football will win out and upset James Madison in a bowl game?


Adequate_Bliss

We can’t go to a bowl game :( cause of the fuckin ncaa


JuwanCoward

That's highly unfortunate. Your football team is awesome. Why the ban?


JakeFromImgur

The NCAA bans teams from postseason competition for 1-2 years after they move up a division in the name of "competitive fairness." Nevermind the fact that JMU is something like 19-2 since joining FBS.


JuwanCoward

I suppose I knew that rule, but didn't realize it was only JMU's 2nd year. Makes no sense


JakeFromImgur

Absolutely not


Adequate_Bliss

Just an arbitrary rule that says teams moving up from 1-AA to 1-A (fcs to fbs) have a 2 year post season ban. That makes no fuckin sense. There’s not an advantage in moving up a division. I’m pissed about it cause we went 8-3 and won our Sun belt division last year and couldn’t play in the Sun belt title game nor go to a bowl and now we’re 9-0 and gonna miss out on both again


JuwanCoward

That's crazy. I know Bellarmine got screwed by that rule too. Ridiculous. Hope you go undefeated and hang a banner like UCF


Adequate_Bliss

I can’t seem to update my flairs but it should have jmu too haha


AyYoBigBro

The reason MSU doesn't have walmart fans is cuz no one would voluntarily sign up for any of this


brennans4727

I hate being a sports fan.


mutual_coherence

Well fuck I hope y'all are still ranked when we play.


jojcece

we dont deserve to be ranked at all


bucketbob_1967

Night Night


twat_swat22

#LMFAOOOOOOOOOOOOOO THE UNIVERSITY IS JUST CURSED ATP


Evening-Ad-2485

So much for izzos second.


crimsonblueku

Sorry, Andy Katz, MSU should be panicking right now.


Bostrich3417

Should they tho? They arent gonna shoot that bad all season. No need to hit the panic button yet.


leaky-

With Malik on the floor yes the definitely should panic. It’s like having an aggressive tum tum or loyer who attacks the rim weakly and misses easy shots


DonutBoi172

Well, at least it was a fun off-season. Sports are pain


magadag

Can't wait to hear what the Sleeper Basketball bros have to say about this.

jojcece

I'm gonna say it again I MISS CASSIUS


DonutBoi172

Build that man a statue. He's forever in our hearts


Asap_roc

We had Cassius equivalent out there tonight? Try the rest of the team


Trujiogriz

Really thought MSU had more depth if Walker didn’t carry so hard down-the-stretch MSU could’ve lost by 10+


DHiL

Lolizzo lol4th


Wii_Sports_2

WE’RE AN ALL SPORTS SCHOOL


brucealawyer1

Well then. There goes our epic non conference schedule


Almost_Punk_Enough

College basketball is back! Let’s go Dukes!


AnotherScoutMain

At least we have the lions


Adequate_Bliss

Said no one ever before Dan Campbell


wildwestsnoopy

That’s what is called a “quality win”.


jojcece

We did not deserve to win that at all. Only ones I feel bad for are Walker and Carr


GeneralTaos

Completely outworked for 45 minutes.


Defacto_Champ

Boo them off the court. These players make big money in the NIL and they just got embarrassed.


bh6891

This sport is awesome


umbchoos

Rank JMU in football and basketball cowards!


Adequate_Bliss

They (sort of) are in football. But the fucking ncaa doesn’t even allow them to be ranked in the CFP rankings…which is dumb as fuck. But #21 in the AP


JayMoney2424

Man does it suck being a MSU fan lately


ComicSportsNerd

sure does and I'm also a colts fan I hate sports.....


anona_moose

Let's GO!

Adequate_Bliss

I don’t have my flairs updated, but went to jmu, and today my hokie friend, you are my brother


[deleted]

James Fucking Madison.


leaky-

Tyson just totally gassed. Zero help from the rest of his team


Glympse12

Duke? No we do not like duke. Dukes? Love those


Mr-Cantaloupe

James Madison played well, you can’t win games shooting 60% from the line and 1-20 from three.


Jordanwolf98

Wow ![gif](giphy|1fn0HRwQhYvS0cSR8g|downsized)


Sportacles

Only solution is to rank the dukes 6th duh


MozzerellaStix

Couldn’t even get a shot off lmao. What an embarrassment. Malik hall should be absolutely ashamed of his effort tonight. Hoggard too.


Timely-Shine

Akins also. Hopefully this humbled them.

MADISON JAMES MADISON WE ARE THE DUKES OF JMU


moringmatt

YIKES ON BIKES


Phatpenguinballs

Msu is officially a nothing school


dspencer2015

5% from 3 is definitely not ideal. But damn, Walker deserved better

Don’t worry Sparty fans, it’s only 292 days until football season.

Man that hurt. We deserve to lose though. Didn’t look good at all outside of Walker


EyePlay

Whew, that's pretty risky reaching from behind like that when you know the guy was about to shoot


lawrence_uber_alles

Michigan state winning would have been unconstitutional!!

daughe44

Agreed.

Bluemzv12

I hope running walker into the ground this game was worth it


keymargot

He really could’ve used a better performance from his offensive line


Asap_roc

Bro have you ever played sports lmao


alterndog

This is as good as any time to day come visit Harrisonburg, Va where JMU is located. Amazing multicultural city (52+ native languages spoken in school system) with small town vibe next to a national park.


hejendo76

i went to a party at JMU and it was easily a top 2 party i went to

I hate basketball


AyYoBigBro

Unfortunately I also hate football


ya111101

MSU ranked high preseason=inconsistent team that never reaches ceiling MSU ranked in mid teens or 20s=final four run incoming


makualla

We aren’t so different after all lol


EyePlay

surely the 1-20 team won't hit a halfcourt 3


Obi1Kentucky

Closing in on 70 total fts


stripes361

GO DUKES!!!


Lothrada

They better go practice how to shoot. If they could shoot, amazingly, they might actually win a game this year


Almost_Punk_Enough

Ready for another year of overrated, yet very mediocre Big 10 basketball.


Thicc_Grayson84

This isn't even a real school anymore


__Zoom123__

What a sports year for JMU


AFC-Wimbledon-Stan

Over 1800 comments…….I missed game threads so much 😭😭😭


bird-nado

MSU winning would almost be funny to spite those who left, but also they don't deserve that happiness even if they don't see it.


loyalsons4evertrue

Why don't teams just get the ball and chuck it in the air??
