No - not for UVA or VT - Gameday is coming to undefeated James Madison University as they take on Richmond in Harrisonburg. JMU won a national championship in its division about ten years ago and they are currently undefeated. Lots of JMU grads in my neck of the woods (they have a large business school) and the locals are truly excited over this opportunity. They are coached by Everett Withers (former assistant at UNC who was head coach for one year after Davis was fired). Proof again that an experienced coach makes the difference. JMU is an FCS school that is considering FBS - not sure if they would do that if William and Mary and Richmond don't come along as well.
JMU does not have a medical or law school, so it is listed by US News as a "regional" school. Nevertheless, its academic rating as an undergraduate university is one of the highest in the south in that classification. (With fewer graduate programs, you have more professors teaching the undergraduates.)
Anyway - cheers for the Dukes of JMU for representing the Old Dominion (while the two power 5 representatives sink further into obscurity).
