JSU should celebrate their first FBS game and a win. It is a huge milestone for a program making the jump up in class and a win over a team that is not a pushover. Both teams have significant work to do to compete at the top level of CUSA, but this was Week 0 and it is a long season.
Date: August 16, 2023 | “It is always exciting when a team makes the leap from FCS to FBS.” “And with Rich Rodriguez in his second year at the helm, it should be an exciting team to watch with lots of scoring. We are excited to see the Gamecocks first game at this level.”
Then it was time for the wet self guided tour of Rice University. It can not be overstated, just how gorgeous this campus is. In my humble unscientific opinion, to date, this is the second most impressive campus behind only West Point.
