James Madison is coming into this game playing in some high scoring games recently as they have seen 54 points total or more in each of their last 3 straight as well as 4 of their last 5 games. Their offense has been very good in these games as they have scored 31 points or more in each of their last 3 straight as well as 5 of their 6 games this season. Their defense has struggled more though as they have allowed at least 23 points in 2 of their last 3 games and they do not have a good passing defense either. They are going up against a Marshall team that has also been playing in some high scoring games recently as they have seen 65 points or more in each of their last 3 games which also includes 2 conference games in that span. Their offense has been good as they have scored at least 41 points in 2 of their last 3 games but their defense has also been allowing a lot of points as they have allowed at least 35 points in each of their last 3 games as well. James Madison has been rolling over teams all season as they cannot compete in their conference championship but are still out to prove they are the best in the conference with an undefeated record. They got their revenge against Southern Georgia last week for beating them last year and Marshall is also one of the few teams that beat them last year so they will be coming for revenge in this game as well. Marshall does not have a good run defense either so James Madison will be able to run all over them here which will open up the passing game as well. Marshall just lost 2 straight road games though and they are going to be hungry to bounce back here at home, especially against this rival team. James Madison also has an awful passing defense so Marshall is going to have success throwing the ball on them, especially if they need to play from behind. Between these two teams, there will be enough points in this game to push it over the total.
