They're a small school, a smart school, and they still WON!!!
Wooooooohooooooo!
Trojans go for it on 4th and 1, and get stuffed. Loss on downs.
Motto for today: Put Booty on his ass.
With the Ga Tech loss, this year as was the case last year, ND failed to beat a top 25 team (last year #30 Navy was the dame's BIG win).
So far Navy is in control. It was just announced that next year the game will be in Baltimore. Very Cool!
LOL
Interception! Navy!
Congrats to the Demon Deacons with their FIRST ever ACC championship.
Navy just intercepted Army. They lead 14-7
I survived shopping.
USC and UCLA are both tied at 0 for the moment.

TD UCLA!!!
God bless 'em. It's looking good for Navy.
Orange Bowl, Miami, FL, Dolphins Stadium January 2, 2007, Fox BCS vs. BCS (ACC Champion to play here if available)
Expect it to be ACC vs. Big East, but this could quickly get strange depending on the SEC scenario. If Florida loses the SEC title game, the Orange Bowl might make a big push to get the Gators. The ACC representative is anyone's guess at this point with Georgia Tech, Wake Forest, Boston College and Maryland all possibilities. The Big East doesn't have an automatic tie-in to the title game, so the champion could potentially go to the Fiesta Bowl, but the Orange Bowl, depending on the national title game, should get the second or third pick of the at-large teams (with the Rose Bowl getting the number one choice), and it's not going to take Boise State.
Assuming Rutgers doesn't win out and go to the BCS Championship game, the Big East champion is the likely pick. If Rutgers goes 12-0 and misses out on the title, it'll be a mortal lock to play here. However, if West Virginia beats the Scarlet Knights, and Louisville, Rutgers, and West Virginia all finish 11-1, the bid goes to the highest ranked team according to the BCS standings. The guess here is it would be Louisville. However, things might get thrown off it Maryland wins the ACC title and West Virginia finishes as the Big East representative, because the two already played this year with the Mountaineers winning 45-24 on September 14th. Rematches aren't forbidden, but they're frowned upon.
Bowl Projection: Georgia Tech vs. Louisville Don't completely dismiss the possibility of the number two SEC team playing here, and the Orange Bowl might jump all over Florida if it loses the SEC Championship game. Georgia Tech appears to be the best ACC team, by a slim margin, and assuming West Virginia wins at home against Rutgers, and Pittsburgh loses to both Louisville and West Virginia, it'll be between the Cardinals and the Mountaineers for who gets the spot.
Possible matchups in order of probability: 1) Georgia Tech vs. Florida, 2) Boston College vs. Louisville, 3) Georgia Tech vs. West Virginia, 4) Boston College vs. West Virginia, 5) Georgia Tech vs. Rutgers, 6) The ACC champion vs. Arkansas or Auburn

Should we start a pool re: who will play Wake Forest? And I will personally bet whoever it is will say something like they don't want to play little old Wake Forest ......I betcha.
I wuz worried there for awhile!
GO UCLA! LOL!!
Thanks, MFO - except Wake did win the ACC Championship 36 years ago. 1970. However, that was BEFORE the powerhouses joined the ACC: Florida State, Miami, Boston College, and Virginia Tech. So this year is V E R Y Special!
When, in the first half?
Not anymore! EO1P, Bruins 7, Trojans 0.
Hope you're well, Mike. Thank you, as always, for your service to our nation.
Thank you :)
Everything is GREAT here today :)
Interception, touchdown, Navy!
