2018 to be JMU football’s toughest season under Mike Houston

Through two full regular seasons under head coach Mike Houston and Co., things have begun in tremendous fashion. With a 21-1 regular season record and perfect conference record, the real competition seems to only take place in the postseason. The Dukes have outscored their regular season opponents 920-357 and have held them from scoring over 21 points on 18 different occasions — including all 11 games in 2017. Even in the four games the JMU has given up more than three touchdowns, it still holds a 3-1 record.

The Dukes sole regular season loss came at the hands of the 2016 North Carolina Tar Heels and, to put that 56-28 loss into perspective, UNC’s quarterback is now starting for the Chicago Bears.
