James Madison votes to terminate contract with Sun Belt Conference
The James Madison Dukes are heading to a new conference once again. After joining the Football Bowl Subdivision as members of the Sun Belt Conference in 2022, news came out on Monday morning that the Dukes voted to terminate their contract with that league and will now accept an invitation to the American Conference, which will begin no later than July 1, 2028. The American Conference "full" membership includes 13 institutions: Alabama-Birmingham, Charlotte, East Carolina , Florida Atlantic , Memphis, North Texas, Rice, South Florida, Temple, Texas-San Antonio, Tulane, Tulsa and Wichita State. In football, the conference also includes Army and Navy, while Wichita State does not sponsor football. There have also been reports that Miami (OH) is considering a move to the American Conference as well. A move to the American makes sense for James Madison, as the conference has proven to be home to several established brands that recently jumped to the Power Four level, including Cincinnati, Houston, and UCF to the Big 12, and SMU to the ACC. James Madison went 12-2 in 2025 with a berth in the College Football Playoff under former head coach Bob Chesney, eventually losing to the Oregon Ducks in the first

Late rally falls just short to Dukes
Georgia Southern came up just short to James Madison, falling 27-24 on Saturday at Allen E. Paulson Stadium. The Eagles got a big stop and drove down the field, but a 52-yard field goal scraped the bottom of the crossbar, and the Dukes escaped to remain unbeaten on the season. The Eagles' 11-play, 63-yard touchdown drive that ended early in the fourth quarter pulled them within 20-17, but the push was not enough to overcome the Dukes. The Eagles threw for 343 yards and three touchdowns, while the Dukes finished with 438 yards of total offense and went 4-for-5 on fourth down. The Eagles leaned on the pass in the first quarter, with Max Johnson completing 7 of 9 for 95 yards, including a 50-yard completion to Jeremiah Ware and an 18-yard touchdown to Taylor Bradshaw , and went 2-for-3 on third down. The Dukes rushed for 66 yards and held a 7:49-7:11 edge in possession, but the Eagles stopped a fourth-down try at their 36 and limited the Dukes to a 33-yard field goal after an interception to lead 7-3 after the quarter. The Eagles and Dukes traded field goals in the second quarter, with Tripp Bryant finishing a
