Episode Details

JMU has never won in Statesboro, and this week's forecast could make the game a mud-soaked slog. Bennett and Jack start with a special weather edition of the podcast, then use the numbers to show why JMU should win, including the Dukes' top-30 passing efficiency, Georgia Southern's weak secondary, and a big special teams and field position gap.

Then Brian Stone of the Warm Weather Fans Podcast (and a former Georgia Southern beat writer) joins to break down the Eagles' season: the Clay Helton frustration, quarterback Max Johnson's improvement, the defensive and special teams problems, and the only ways he sees Georgia Southern pulling the upset. Brian also gives his Sun Belt East and West champion picks and his biggest surprises of the season.

Plus: listener questions on JMU "living rent-free" in other fan bases, how to keep students from leaving at halftime, and how the transfer portal affects this roster. Bennett explains what voting in the AP poll is really like, then the guys break down strength of record vs. strength of schedule. They finish with the Sun Belt Weekly Pick 'Em and a roundup of JMU sports.
