James Madison 2025 CFP preview: Everything Texas Tech fans need to know
2025 Sun Belt Conference Football Championship - Troy v James Madison | Hannah Foslien/GettyImagesThe James Madison Dukes are about to play in one of the toughest tests that they’ve encountered (quite possibly ever as a program). On the road (all the way across the country) against the Oregon Ducks in the opening round of the College Football Playoff.
That’s a pretty big deal. It would be monumental in so many ways if the Dukes could go to Eugene and find a way to beat the Ducks. Not only would this be a G5 program going on the road to face a much tougher foe, this is a former FCS program trying to compete for a spot in the FBS national championship game.
That’s huge.
