Dukes are Sun Belt Title Bound! | To The House

·1 hr 12 min·5 clips

Dad Lee breaks down Alonzo's first-play RPO read and the opening-drive touchdown sequence.

Delvin Joyce welcomes listeners back to To The House, with Dad Lee calling in from a hotel while traveling. The opening stays loose and conversational. The two start with the trip to Conway, South Carolina, and the mood around Coastal Carolina. Delvin notes that plenty of JMU fans still carry real hostility toward Coastal. Dad Lee says he does not feel all of that beef, even if he understands the rivalry energy. From there, the conversation widens into the bigger picture of JMU’s season. They say the team is gelling and bonding at the right time. The defense becomes the main proof point. They look back at the App State game, where JMU held the Mountaineers to one rushing yard. Dad Lee calls that the high-water mark for a rushing defense. He then points to the Coastal Carolina game log, including a stretch where Coastal sat at negative rushing yards. The final total, negative five on the ground for Coastal, is treated as another sign of how suffocating the unit has been. The hosts compare that result with the App State number and note that the two teams combined for negative four rushing yards against JMU. They still point out that Coastal completed a few passes. The discussion specifically mentions Justin Eaglin and suggests Coastal went after him after seeing something they thought they could use. From there, the talk shifts toward the broader playoff conversation. The hosts mention coaching movement, committee attention, and the value of having JMU’s staff still in place. They close by telling fans to show up at Bridgeforth on Friday night and make the stadium sound cold and loud. The episode ends where it started: control what can be controlled and bring the energy for the final home push.
