I mean idk it’s a 7-1 Navy team. If we end up winning like 52-20 I don’t think anyone is really asking any questions.

I’d much rather see a frustrating ride to 31-10 than 44-23.

Optics are stronger.

Good call to go into half with the lead. I would have taken one shot down the field though.

Imma be honest. The ghost of Brian Kelly is in that stadium tonight.

I’d think this game was being played in 2015 if I didn’t know any better.

This looks like a BK team tonight.

Sort of disappointing to give up any points there before half, but an 11 point lead all things considered isn't bad. Scoring out of half would really put the screws on them.

Everyone is upset we don’t take a shot there before half… until there is a fumble or INT and somehow Navy puts points on the board.
Yeah, I mean I would have wanted maybe one shot, but in the rain I can understand pulling it down and going to the half.

Deep ball.

Best case scenario: big gain or flag

Worst case scenario: INT caught by a guy who runs a 5.1 40.

I get it, but we would have been fine.

Yup. especially in the wet conditions. It was a good call. I think i would have tried at least once.

Not that you want to see your team play down to the level of the competition, but BC and Navy really is the "lull" or "low point" in our schedule.

Two teams you should beat easily. With a three-game stretch to finish the season, which has a couple more challenging games. It feels like, if there is a place where we might play our worst, it would be against BC and Navy.

With that said, I am not sure what that would say about the coaching in getting the players up for these two games.
