JMU is FBS beginning this year.
The game in 2023 replaces the game against Liberty that we cancelled.

Not a bad addition at all…
I agree. I think this is a good replacement for Liberty… sadly, I wish the MAC had gone after them for conference expansion but that is a completely different topic.

When are we making the return trip to Holy Cross?
(Kidding)
We’ll see how their FBS transition will go but they’ll likely be a very tough opponent (three straight FCS semifinal appearances and just five total losses over the past three seasons).
With that our first four games of 2023 are set (in order): @ Da U, @ UMass, @ UC, vs. JMU. We still need a week-one game in 2026, whatever we end up scheduling for then (almost certainly a P5 buy game) will be followed by: vs. Holy Cross, vs. UC (at PBS), @ JMU.

JMU was or is ranked in first FBS year…Miami 6-6?
I would not be surprised if Miami does not play them next year.

JMU finally lost - yesterday at Georgia Southern. That MTSU team JMU whupped in early September beat Coral Gables by 21 a couple weeks ago. .
Last game notes the game was not listed for 2023.
The game notes are updated very poorly in my opinion - so I would assume JMU is still on

Interesting. The series is longer on Football’s Future Schedules page either. I’ve got somewhere else I can look.

The fbsschedules.com has the series listed for both Miami and JMU. The official JMU Football site lists it too. The omission must be a Miami error.
