F- A/F, that means navy will fall back as well... we should end our matchup with them. No sense in preparing for a unique style of offense.

I guess it's Temple now?

Navy is in with or without AF

wtf? I dont get this at all. Why wouldnt a school that recruits from all over the country not want to be in a conference with nationwide exposure? Do they not like the extra cash?

With all do respect to Lt. Gen. Mike Gould, terrible [deleted] decision... Stop wasting tax dollars when you could be making money with the new Big East contract. Typical Government type of decision...

Cause clearly the naval academy is better academically. They know how to add up numbers and use the greater than sign.

Because their president is buddies with mwc commish, and he don't care that he is wasting 10m of taxpayer money by ignoring realities of college football.

I have read that AF also feels its long time rivalries with Colorado State and Wyoming are extremely important to its fan base and does not want to jeopardize them.
