exactly Calallen-I realize Navy is surprising Army with the gameplan-but I'm seeing Navy guys run right past slow DBs.

Which is why we need to use our SPEED at WR which is superior to that of Navy.

Army's offense is quite offensive.

June must be salivating thinking about ways to attack that Army secondary.

[RE Tycoon]

Special teams is awful for Army as well. If Fields is healthy and we don't run one back I'll be disappointed.

Anyone else think that early 7 point line is a little insulting to us now? I do. I'm also embarrassed we lost to Navy.

[SmooBoy]

Still scratching my head how they played Hawaii so close.

[Stallion]

Based on boxscore-I'd say ball control and a strong rush defense. 38-22 minutes in favor of Army. Held Hawaii to 10 yards rushing. Hawaii QB was 25-34 for 343 yards and 3 TDs

Well after seeing the first half, I know Navy is probably better at Defending the option than we are but I expect us to trounce ARMY. Wouldn't be surprised if the line goes up. Hope we come out and decided to play a full 60 minutes. Pony Up

Army QB Streetman hurt on last play of Half-limps to locker room

What a backbreaker for Army...just 2 yards from cutting the lead to 17-14 and getting the ball back to start the next half and just like that, 98 yard fumble recovery to the house. those guys must feel sick to their stomach. 9 straight years w/o beating Navy...luckily no Dobbs next year will help Army somewhat.

SMU's offense must be foaming at the mouth watching this one!

[PonyKai]

Watching this game I'm more concerned about our own team being jacked up and ready to play than I am about Army. If we are focused, excited, and ready to play, we win this game by much more than the spread.

[Stallion]

Army has really played tough since 1st Quarter. They control the ball. At one point they had 2-1 advantage against Navy just like they had a big advantage on Hawaii.

[PonyKai]

Of course Navy has also fumbled three times and thrown a pick as well. I just don't walk away from this game seeing Army as a significant threat, even as they're threatening to pull within ten here. I see us as our biggest challenge. Will we be focused? Will everyone be eligible? Will everyone be healthy? Will the players take care of business in practice having to travel over to Ft. Worth?

It seems like when June has an extended period to plan for an opponent, and there isn't an enormous talent gap, his game plans are pretty effective. See Hawai'i Bowl last year, small sample size.

If we waltz in and aren't focused, start turning it over, and the offense stalls yet again, then we could be in trouble. I put the onus on us for that, though, and don't see Army as the greatest threat.

[SmooBoy]

A moral victory for Army
