And it was a great college game atmosphere.

I am not talking about that Statler, I was talking about the fans on their feet cheering and just the general feeling in the air. It was nice. We took a good Navy team to OT and we had our chances to win. There is nothing to hold our head down about. I think we might need to put McNeal in a slot position every once and a while too. He is clearly our most explosive player along with ES.

Look I respect what your saying....But we had the better team tonight...better athletes....

After 20 years of "nothing to hold our heads' down about" that is unacceptable...

JJ got paid $166,666.66 for that game and to avoid stuff like that...

I think I conveyed the wrong tone my fellow alum. I was just focusing on something else. We're good. :D

I find no comfort in moral victories at this point.

For those not at the game, the 3 F18 flyover was so loud that my 16 month old son now cringes every time he hears a jet go by, 3 days later - and he wasn't even at the game. He was INSIDE our house in the M Streets with my wife. Now that's loud.

They hit the afterburners right over the top of the stadium--you could see the blue flames coming out the back. That was the coolest.

And the timing was perfect. A beat after the last note of The National Anthem.
