Why is it bad? Sure, no timeouts, but the defense is expecting a pass. Use the QB who has ran for 14 touchdowns to score from 3 out with a line that should get push.

I don't think Wimbush is getting enough credit for how gritty of a run that was. He was stopped and it took a second and third effort to get in. It's a bad call because if he gets stopped that's half time and we're down 10-3 at the half with Navy getting the ball. If it was 4 second left I would actually have been fine with that call because it is the last play anyway. But with what, 12 seconds? If you get stopped in bounds you don't have time for another play.

These coaches are stupid Adams isn't healthy but dexter and jones are so why are they carrying the ball?

Throw the ball with BW is about as bad as an idea as sleeping with Hillary Clinton.

Our special teams suck.

I agree, but at what point is a win not enough? Eeking by teams you are favored by 20 over isnt enough, thats what teams who finish 8-4 every year do.



I know that we should easily win, but we just don't have that mojo right now. Realistically the way we are playing, I feel like we're going to win (close) today, lose to a mediocre Stanford team and get a bowl matchup hopefully against a team we can play with...... The way we look right now, a possible 10 win year would be considered a great year. I do think the reality that we don't really have a QB needs to set in. I am praying that Phil comes in and looks even close to what he looks like in a tough PA HS division. At the end of the day, you know Kelly has done enough to stay and we are going have to come to terms with that fact. Even as bad as we look right now, a decent QB on this team has us undefeated. The sky isn't falling and we're going to be fine...... Just kinda gotta maybe find a QB

Kelly

Kelly

This team has done a complete 180 from 3 games ago.

Kelly needs to use his quicker backs. 34 and 38. They are eating Josh alive. Kelly can't seem to figure things out that work and the games moves forward. Same old plays. Very predictable.

"Should" doesn't equal success on that play. It was extremely risky to run through traffic up the middle. Great tough run, but rally we are fortunate to have scored. Being down a TD with them getting the KO would have sucked.

Every year I swear to myself I won't watch the Navy game. And here I am torturing myself once again.

Easily the most angry I've been since Texas.... this feels so much like a typical Navy loss over the last decade, they're getting the spots, the turnovers and any time we flip momentum they flip it right back....

Good news is it's halftime, Navy dominated, played their game and it's tied. If our boys just play as they're capable and make a few stops they should be able to pull away but damn... that scenario seems a long way off after that shitfest.

What a shitty game to attend. Soaking wet, freezing my balls off only to watch Navy with the ball for 20 minutes.

Love these games with more time looking at the sideline than actually playing.

GOD help us if I run out of vodka.

Spare me

Spare me

After watching our first three and out I went out to mow the lawn. I dared to check in here and it looks like team Kelly is playing right into Navy's game plan. Would suck to blow it on senior day. These guys don't deserve their fancy pants uniforms. Embarrassing to have the style with no real swag behind it. This team has reverted back to possibly last years team or worse.

What does Navy's QB have all over his hands? That pink substance?

Just a sloppy, shit game. ND is disinterested in this game.

BW looks.....bad.
EQ looks.....dead.
Adams looks injured.

Recipe for a big upset and sloppy loss is there.
