Army appears to be a better team this year than last and I think will give Navy a real run for its money. Let's face it, all of the SAs are most competitive in the bottom 1/3 of Div I (or FBS as they call it these days). The heydays of Heismans and Cotton and Orange Bowls and national championships are long gone, never to be resurrected. And that's ok.
Enjoy the fact that our SA teams are playing schedules with games that are (generally) competitive and fun to watch. With luck, your/my team will get to a (low tier) bowl game and, with some great play and a little luck, will win the C-in-C's trophy. And that each player who graduates is intelligent, well educated, a leader, and (with probably a few exceptions), a great human being.
