Navy’s current QB ran wild against us last year as a backup. Do not see us as having any improvement this year.

Might be too cold if it's a night game though

Navy has destroyed us with great QBs and average QBs.

No reason to expect anything different until we actually see it happen for once.

Let's just hope we can find AT LEAST one more win in the regular season so we know this year's team will have a winning record. Navy game should at least help us prepare for Tulane

How many times has the team been prison raped on for homecoming at SMU?

I think we get one more win but it won't be against UCF. Our defense can't stop Navy so we will have to have an amazing offensive day. Memphis isn't likely, but Houston shouldn't have happened last year either. Probably comes down to Tulane but that won't be easy.

The USF homecoming a couple years ago was absolutely brutal.

I've been watching that weekly Showtime(?) special on Navy every week-they are turning the ball over more this year and have some key players hurt. Not predicting a win-but still think that's our best bet. So far this has probably been UCF's best team-Navy (in Annapolis) was the only one to give them a game so far and it wasn't really that close. Offensive Team speed kills us

With it being homecoming, I could see a much better fan attendance. I think the 1st half fan presence was better than expected. It seem like half time half of that bolted. I don't understand our fans. Yeah it's cold but it's a Friday so you have the weekend to recover.

Sad thing is, we haven't beaten anybody great. I mean we have beaten:

Before this week's games:

FCS Team
NTCC (4-3) Sagarin #109
Arkie State (4-2) #77
UCONN (3-4) #130
Cincy (2-6) #106
Tulsa (2-6) #94

So I mean right or wrong, it's hard to provide justification on "Fans are so awful" for not showing up for this team. If they beat UCF on homecoming, and we are 7-2 then yeah by all means be critical.
