Years from now, when JMU historians dig deep into the Dukes' football archives, the JMU-UVa clash of '83 will be filed under: The one that got away — UVa 21, JMU 14. Following the game, "would have's," "could have's" and "should have's" abounded in a JMU locker room filled with frustration. And there was ample reason to be frustrated. After Gary Clark stunned the crowd of 31,984 with punt returns of 87 and 89 yards for a 14-0 JMU lead, the Dukes were unable to stretch their advantage. Three times they drove inside the Cavalier 20-yard line and three times they went away empty. Two fumbles and an interception kept the Dukes and their followers from enjoying for another year those highly coveted bragging rights held by JMU since since last year's 21-17 defeat of UVa. "I don't think we got beat ... I think we stopped ourselves," JMU coach Challace McMillin said. "You've got to put it in there.
