  • The Service Academies

    Hats off to these kids who put a whoopin' on their teams today. It's amazing what these kids do and I am stoked that they're having a great day. They deserve it.

    Also, the triple option is deadly for teams that don't deal with it often. I suspect Paul Johnson's success at GT won't last long as the ACC becomes more familiar with it. And how scary would AF be if they could throw like Navy when they had to (Though today they certainly passed well)?

    Passing is the conundrum of triple option teams, since they can be very dangerous with a decent passing game, but the execution of the option requires them to devote their time to that aspect, rather than the passing game. So what you end up with is a mediocre passing attack for the most part. But when the team can hit their passes, watch out!
    I congratulate the academies; it's good to see them outplay these other schools. I just wish we didn't have to deal with the chop blocking they dole out. I still remember what they did to Pitta last year.

      The kids at the Academies are not only very disciplined, but they are extremely bright as well. They definitely have a mental edge over most of their competition.

      I enjoy watching all of them play and am happy that they had a great season.

        I love watching the Acadamies play football. I love having Air Force in our conference (even if that means we have to play them every year). They are crisp, play hard and would never need to be put in a closet at practice because their punishment for insubordination would be far worse.

          And none of their teammates would stick up for their pansy ass if they behaved like James.
