Midshipmen

Anyone paying attention to this Navy team?

 

sweet reverse on 4th and 2

 

Had Pitt season tix in 1963 when Navy's Roger Staubach broke Pitt's heart with a 24-12 W at Annapolis, Pitt's only loss that season. Pitt went 9-1 and because they were holding out for a big bowl invite (which never came), they never played post season that year. Crazy. Had to wait 13 years for TD and company to get that National Championship and go 12-0 with a Sugar Bowl W. HTP!

 

We have a kid from our small school that got a scholarship to play at navy. He's a QB Name is Alex Erby. He's playing this year at some kind of academy associated with the naval academy so it won't eat up his red shirt year. Pretty good deal for a kid from Steelton

 

Roger Staubach had to serve his time first. He was on an aircraft carrier and would practice on the flight deck.

I was on a ship that would have had to take a torpedo heading for a carrier. I would have been PO'd saving the carrier he was on

 

It would be awesome if both Army and Navy were undefeated heading into their big game on December 14th. However... if they both keep winning, they would play in the AAC conference championship the week prior. That would ruin the annual Army Navy game if it happened IMO.

They both have to play ND and will be underdogs in those games. Every other game is winnable for both teams.

 

So
Much for Navy being undefeated… Notre Dame laying the pipe down on the midshipmen

 

It's easy to be undefeated when You don't play anyone.

 

Speaking of not playing anyone… Mississippi St sucks…. Enjoy the win

 

We got Texas A&M next week

 

Navy got to stop by Midas and get a new set of brakes put on, coz the old ones just got beaten off

 

He said beaten off

 

Exactly my point. If We played a schedule like some of these teams we would be undefeated also, or just one loss.

 

I'm learning that.

 

If your talking Arkansas, I can see that. Nasty schedule and I'm guessing the better HS players are not enticed to go to Arkansas?????

 

We have played Texas A&M for 15 years straight in Texas. Sounds really fair doesn't it. Even our home games. Finally this was our last year to have to do it.

 

Crap. I dislike ND.

 

Ohio St plays like they are today, Penn State gonna whip them next week

 

Im Irish… always hated Notre Dame! Probably not their fault. NBC force fed us them ever since I was a kid

 

Well they were on your side… just like we had to play Ga every year

 

Have you seen the Gamecocks schedule? Welcome to the SEC

 

Come on Nebraska… trailing 21-17..3:36 to go.. Cornhuskers ball…

 

PI on offense.. ball back to their own 12

 

Yet we've beat everyone that wasn't ranked except OK State...who was ranked at the time. We've lost to number 8, and number 14, and beat number 7, and we aren't that good. Who You play makes a big difference. If You look at the undefeated teams ....look who've they'd played. Like Navy....then see what happens when they actually face someone
