Who’s ready for football? Navy’ “Lost Season”

I’m excited to see how the year goes. ‘Gettin giddy for football, Friday nights under the lights and college too!
 
Niumatalolo is a great guy and coach. I know it’s sacrilegious, but I root for Navy all but one weekend of the year.

I do the same for Army, except any A-N match-up. Especially when SA teams go up against behemoth FB teams that collectively outweigh them by what seems like a few thousand pounds.

Personally I was hoping he was going to take the offer from Arizona State. Sometimes you have to bring in someone new with a different perspective and playbook.
 
I'm excited. DW and Sis look for the Mid the entire game and I get to watch "real student athletes" strap-it-up-n-go against Goliath.

Navy played against the UW (on a Home-Home) back in the Don James years: I remember him quoted as saying "You hate to play a service academy. They play smart and they play hard the entire game. If you don't pay attention, they can beat you. The worst part is, if you beat them all you did was meet everyones expectations, if you lose to one it's the end of the world."

There are likely versions of this sentiment expressed by every coach who ever played a service academy, (well, maybe not Air Force), but that's what we remember up here in the great PNW.

Note: Justdoit19 I am going to shoot you a quick PM look for it.
