Normally do this on Monday mornings, but since we have a Friday game, putting it up a day early. Navy crushes Tulsa yesterday and rushes for 455 yards. This has to make Mustang fans nervous, after watching our porous Rush defense this season. I believe this will be the tipping point, or could be the tipping point game of our season. Lose this one, and the wheels could come shooting off. What say you?

Mustangs 24

Navy 21

Going to have to think about this one after predicting with my heart and getting smoked 2 weeks in a row. I do know that our DC faced an option team last year at Liberty and got whipped by Army so after seeing what Navy did to Tulsa I do worry about the season falling apart on Friday

35-14 navy

My prediction? Pain. Figurative and literal. Navy had like 450+ yds rushing against Tulsa. I tried to add it up in my head between all the ball carriers and lost count.

Navy will come in with understandable confidence, and unless we're measurably better than Tulsa...

USNA 45
SMU 17

navy 42
smu 41

Clear eyes, full hearts, can't lose. Pony's win.

Ponies - 28
Navy - 45

My first lost prediction since this team just looks one dimensional and more importantly predictable on offense. Defense isn't elite enough to stop them forever. Navy gets into a rhythm and smu gets one or two garbage time TDs.

It's sunshine here in College Station, at least when you aren't an Aggie, and don't run a play with 3 seconds on the 2 yard line against the No. 1 team in the country, trailing 24-20...and you don't even TRY to get it into the end zone....

therefore:

Ponies 31
non-ponies 27

I was able to put our Defense on the prayer list at church yesterday…there are a ton of good Methodists on their knees in advance of Friday night.

SMU 21 Navy 17

Can't make a prediction until I see the uniform hype video.

If the team loses, they deserve the wheels to come off. Tulsa doesn't have the offense we do, and I think we have some guys on the team who knows Navy well and did well against them (Phillips, ISM, Levelston, Chatman) last year. But I can see either one happening. But this IS the tipping point of the season game. Win and we are exactly where I thought we'd be. Lose and this all goes to [Deleted]. I have faith.
