Navy comes on the field with a flyover of F-16s.

Army comes on the field with a flyover of helicopters.

Apt metaphor for the two offensives.

I missed the flyover. But, what the hell Navy? You couldn't scrape up a couple Hornets, super or otherwise? smh

Mea culpa. They were F-18s. I googled a photo and the jet had twin tail fins. I thought the announce said F-16s. During the break I ran back the DVR and Verne clearly said, "F-18s".

Navy had jets. Army had propellers.

The under is not looking to safe.


Thinking the same thing. I was going to bet the over as Army had lost several games by 3 points and can score. Then, looking at Navy and Army common opponents, AF and Tulane, I convinced myself that Army would only score 3-10 points for the day. When I went to place my vwager I noticed betters (bettors, better bettors) low balled the O/U. With no backbone, I followed the crowd, both of you.

2 MINUTE WARNING! Army 17 Navy 14

2 MINUTE WARNING! Army 17 Navy 14

Navy needs to put a stop to Army's imperialist microaggressions.

I was going to go with the over too but I decided since both teams run the ball A LOT that they would have time to score over 50.

This is always one of my favorite games of the year and this one is actually enjoyable to watch. Usually I pull for Navy for family/personal reason, but it isn't a slam dunk that I prefer Navy and either way America wins. But this year I'm 51/49 for Army because I'd like to see them stop the streak in what would be maybe the year they're the biggest underdog during the streak. Either way my Army cover is looking good.

By the way, two of the best helmet situations of all time happening in this game.

Army played their hearts out, hats off to them. Hopefully something nutty happens here at the end.
