Lotta SIPin' takes place pregame.

“The Sip”

Just thinking,  if Army goes undefeated, or with one loss... and they're in the top 16... it could happen

[NoWammies]

That Army/Navy game could have a lot on the line with both currently being undefeated. They both have games against Notre Dame that would def put them in the playoff discussion if they can pull it off. Navy opened my eyes with their big win over Memphis. They do have the hardest remaining schedule of the two though. If Army can pull off the Notre Dame game I see them going into the Army/Navy game undefeated. Hopefully my Air Force Falcons can upset them both and take back the Commander In Chief trophy but not looking very likely right now.

Army passed 7! times. Might be a record fot attempts.

[NoWammies]

1 above their average pass attempts p/g. No surprise that the three service academies are the bottom three for pass attempts p/g.

Was it last year in the Navy/Army game that neither team attempted a pass?

[NoWammies]

It wasn’t last year. Navy actually passed a good bit last year. I’m currently backtracking now to see when it was. So far there’s been a bunch of years where both teams attempted 7-8 total between the two.

Maybe I was recalling a different match-up where neither team threw. Don't remember who it was, but it was in the past couple of years... and FBS teams

[NoWammies]

Back in the 2017 Army/Navy game both QB’s only passed once. I do recall what you’re talking about though but just can’t remember who it was. I’ve gone back 20 years on Army and they’ve had a bunch of games with just 1 attempt. 

[Bulldogs4]

This is the first time in almost 20 years that I am going into a game with zero expectation. Even over the years when we played Bama and the chance to beat them was small I still felt that we had a shot. 
It was in 2005 at LSU and I was there and I knew we had zero shot at kickoff . We were down 35-0 at the half. That is the last time I have had this hopeless feeling. 
Quite honestly it sucks. 
 

On a good note I will enjoy working outside tomorrow through the day. Football will be secondary. 

[NoWammies]

Possible upset in the making with VA Tech up 34-24 on #7 Miami with 12:05 left. I hope I don’t jinx it. 

[s1nglewing]

I think the Miami hype is just that. Vanderbilt beat VT

[NoWammies]

I jinxed it 

[NoWammies]

Miami pulls it out 38-34 in a crazy ending. The ACC command center made a whats best for the conference decision with that decision to overturn the call. Just my opinion but if it takes over 10 mins to review the play then it’s probably not enough evidence to overturn the call.

So i think they got it right in the end, I just thinking the process to get there was bad. I do not believe it was a TD and I think it’s nuts that it was ruled that way on the field. However, if the ruling was a TD, I have no idea what they saw on replay to definitively say they could reverse it.

Uhhh no.  Maybe that’s just ESPN being generous.

[Bulldogs4]

That will be the day when the Saints win the Super Bowl….oh wait just a minute….

maybe hell freezes over….Cal/Rose/DiMaggio’s records are broken…Army wins another NC…State/Ole Miss play games in Jackson again….

that cover it? 

[NoWammies]

Not a good day for Kentucky to be without their best CB ALL-SEC Maxwell Hairston who was gonna be trying to lockdown Tre Harris. Ole Miss is banged up but good to see Ivey, Pegues Hamilton and Dottery will be out there on defense today. 

[rebmus]

Looks like a good day for Kentucky so far Whammy.

[NoWammies]

A lot of adjustments needed to be done at halftime or gonna end the day 4-1. No surprise penalties in the secondary killing us.
