James Madison can now show off three landslide victories after their most recent game on Saturday. They claimed a resounding 42-14 victory over Georgia State on the road.
Jordan McCloud continued his habit of posting crazy stat lines, throwing for 307 yards and four touchdowns while completing 77.8% of his passes, and also rushing for 104 yards and two touchdowns on only 13 carries. James Madison also got a significant boost from Ty Son Lawton, who ran away from the competition to the tune of 95 yards.
Meanwhile, UConn's recent rough patch got a bit rougher on Saturday after their third straight loss. It's going to take some time for them to recover from the 59-3 bruising that Tennessee dished out on Saturday. UConn was surely aware of their disadvantage in the point spread, but the foreknowledge did nothing to prevent the result.
