It could well be the year the pendulum swings back. For years, neither Army or Navy had a game the week before. This year, Navy did, the conference championship, losing to Temple AND seeing side-lining injuries to QB Will Worth, who has been Mr. Rushing QB just like Keenan Reynolds was. I think the FB was also sidelined. The strategic balance has been greatly altered.
Of course, I always root for Navy, but what I always hope for above all is a game where both sides acquit themselves well, and no one gets an injury that threatens their commission.
