So There’s A Game Today...

I am visiting a winery and brew house today with friends. I will check on the score, however.
I'll be with you in spirit.
 
I’ll watch along with watching and holding my nose and pulling for Auburn to beat Georgia and Wake Forest to beat Klempson. Years ago when my son was being recruited for football he had two tickets for all home games. He had to practice the Saturday after a terrible game under the Friday Night Lights, so I took to M&T Bank Stadium a good friend and fellow baseball coach and USNA grad. The good guys lost to the Irish that day but we had a great time. Today’s game should be a doozy.

Roll Tide !!!
 
Surely he slept most of the way, like any good sailor?!

LOL I assume so. He did text me periodically throughout. Around 9:45 last night I asked if he was close - he laughed and said no.

Staying in the dorms with another plebe’s friends.

I don’t think I would want to take the trip. He was happy to get away from USNA for a weekend.

Wonder who Pete Buttigieg is cheering for.
 
Away game movement orders are exhausting but refreshing getaways from the Yard. He will definitely sleep all the way back. Are they leaving after the game to come back? That’s likely, so they have Sunday for school work.
 
Just wait for the Army Navy trip! Up at 0400, looooong bus ride, then on display all day. Bad weather makes it more difficult. Que the "footwarmer and boot liner" threads! Actually just search for them.
 
DD’s best friend is a freshman at ND, hubs went to South Bend with friends for the game too. ND friend is like another daughter so it’s a really special time. I still can’t believe they get to stay in the dorms! Friend has had an air mattress waiting since she moved in, so glad it worked out our Plebe could go.

LOL something tells me my son isn’t on an air mattress. His friend has a good friend that is going to ND - so they are staying there. I suspect he will ***** about sleeping on a floor!

He was happy he didn’t have to pay for a room.
 
I must say I enjoyed how Michigan rolled over ND a few weeks ago. Go Blue! ;)

Go Navy!

My son said they leave tomorrow at 7:30 am.
 
Navy has been playing well this year. I'm in (again)!
Army has played pretty well too.
December 14 can't get here soon enough. Sorry I won't still be in San Diego to watch that one. Seems to me the game should be a week earlier but I guess times change.

[Niumatalolo] Ok guys ... we’re going to wear them down. Game time temp is freezing, and is falling there after .... We’ve got a +10 minute time possession advantage ... their defense tires, we keep them off balance ... we get some breaks we need .... their offense stays cold, and we win.
.
Ok, so here’s the game plan .... we’re gonna try some different looks ....

Perry, you’re going to run the ball right ...next play run left .... then option right, followed by option left. Then we mix it up a little, and stuff the ball center maybe, then fool them with a spread, but you pitch on the end-around.

Got it .... let’s go.

It used to be. Once they instituted all the conf championship games they moved it all Army Navy will have its own weekend and be the lone game.
