The conditions definitely favor Navy (at home, veterans day, senior day, cold). I agree that we need to drive it fast and hard (sorry, had to continue with the inappropriate sexual connotations). Throw the ball deep early and often, strike first and fast. Get up on them. Our defense is going to have to tackle everybody, with or without the ball. I get worried about losing Neals (and Mixon) at the DE positions for this one (older guys who are also very athletic). D. Scott played well but he's still kind of wild and not sure if he plays with the discipline needed. We'll see. We are more athletic and faster (first time).

Oh, also we need our Dline to get some penetration to stop the run :-) (take the attack to them, not sit back and take it) :-) I can do this all day . . .

Anyway, final score:

SMU 42
Navy 41

It will be something like 31-30 late in the third but then it will get out of hand unfortunately.

FWIW: two articles, two different opinions

SMU: https://winnersandwhiners.com/games/nca ... tion-7339/

Navy: https://statsalt.com/games/ncaaf/11-11- ... tion-6584/

I think if score early, quickly and efficiently. We will get in their heads as they have lost 3 straight and looking for W to get to bowl eligible. Let’s get our revenge! #SinkNavy

Been there done that, although it was premature in '02. With that aside, does anyone know if their starting QB is in or out?

We do NOT want anyone's 2nd team quarterback...SMU has a long and storied history of making backup QBs look like J.Holloway.

You mean Jamelle Holieway? If so, that is a good thing...
