Ah yes, the second Tuesday game in a row. Hopefully FIU can do better against Troy than they did against Arkansas State.

[SmoothPancakes]

Also, Navy needs to sit down today and look at themselves. They need to figure out what the hell is going wrong and what needs to be changed to correct it, and change it immediately. The season is on the brink. A 5 game losing streak has taken what looked to be a promising season and turned it into a sinking ship.

The Commander-in-Chief's trophy has been lost for a second straight season after the loss to Air Force a couple weeks ago. The streak of winning 8 or more games every season for the past 8 years is over. If Navy loses two more games, goodbye to the streak of 8 straight bowl games.

Unfortunately for Navy, it's not going to be easy just to make it to 6-6. After this week's game at Notre Dame, they still have games vs. Troy, at SMU, at San Jose State along with the Army-Navy game. Navy very easily could go as bad as 2-10 or as good as 7-5 depending on how they respond to this latest loss and if they get their heads out of their asses and play like they know how and how they have been since 2003. They've already blown the 8 wins or more streak. Please don't blow the bowl game streak in the same damn year.

ugh....do i make the trip to moscow, idaho to see hawaii play? its a 800 mile roundtrip, but it means i get a first date with this woman i like.....such a tough decision.

You leave out too many details. I will say if you are driving on this first date ALONE FOR 800 roundtrip MILES, you should lose your man card for a year. You only lose it for a few weeks if you are traveling with other people. First dates should always be simple and easy to get out of when you find out that the girl you thought of as sweet and sexy turns out to be a secret member of the KKK. Or... You get a hundred miles out only to find out that she was related to Ted Bundy and she just happens to be working on a degree in Criminal Justice degree, "because Uncle Ted and other Serial Killers have always fascinated her."

The man has a point.

Not looking too good for NC State. Too bad we let Russell Wilson go. Looks like another 7-5 year with a mid-low bowl game.

no, if i decide to go, she'd travel both ways with me....and it'd be a 2 day trip. but you have a point about the rest of the stuff you said

[bdoughty]

That is what I meant, the two of you alone. Plus it is weekend leading up to Halloween, just saying.

Vs. Auburn this week, another opportunity for our rush D to get torn apart.

[SmoothPancakes]

God damnit Florida International! What the FUCK is it this year? Navy is playing like absolute shit every week, and now you FIU are going and shoving your heads so far up your asses, you're sucking on your goddamn liver.

[SmoothPancakes]

Alright, I'm going to go lay down now so this heart attack feeling goes away. It took a fucked up PAT and a missed field goal by Troy's kicker for FIU to pull it out tonight in overtime 23-20.

Good to see FIU get that win... That pretty much puts both FIU and Troy out of the running for conference and if ASU can defeat UNT & ULL, that will petty much guarantee us the conference title.

I don't know. Troy is definitely done and out of it. FIU is still right there and has a shot. Arkansas State has been extremely lucky so far against ULM and Western Kentucky. I could see North Texas, ULL and Troy all possibly pulling out wins. ULL is going to be the long shot. With beating Arkansas State (in this scenario), they would have to lose to MTSU and ULM to give FIU a shot at the title. ULM maybe, MTSU, no way.

Members of the marching band woke up ASU head coach Hugh Freeze this morning with the Fight Song for Homecoming.



Just shows the level of excitement that this area has for this team this year. Winning cures a lot of things but just the attitude and excitement from Freeze himself brings a lot of it out as well.

[morsdraconis]

That's pretty damn awesome Tommy. Your Red Wolves are really starting to grow on me. If I get a chance, I'm gonna try to watch their game this weekend.

Yeah, definitely awesome that we're finally starting to get over the hump that we've been on the past 5 years. Our previous head coach did a lot of good to get us started to where we are, but it took a coach like Freeze to actually take us to the next level.

As for watching it, you won't be able to... won't be on TV anywhere and not even sure if our team's website is broadcasting it or not (usually do but it's $10 a month). Our next TV game likely won't be for a couple of weeks when we host ULL (assuming we both continue to win up to that point).

[morsdraconis]

I'm sure it'll be on ESPN3. If it isn't, that's disappointing.
