Who you got?

Navy all the way.
1993-2014.

Added bonus with Navy's uniform theme this year, Blue Angels.

Navy Football unveils new Blue Angels inspired uniforms

Was fortunate enough to spend a tour with the Blues in my career. Pilots are incredibly talented and dedicated.

Where brave men fight…there fight I.
In freedom’s cause…I live, I die.
From Concord Bridge to Heartbreak Ridge,
from the Arctic to the Mekong,
to the Caribbean…
the Queen of Battle!
Always ready…then, now, and forever.

I am the Infantry!

GO ARMY!

In the navy, in the navy
Can't you see we need a hand
In the navy
Come on, protect the motherland
In the navy
Come on and join your fellow man
In the navy

All this Navy love is going to make me barf. With that said, we probably get smoked. Losing 14 years in a row turned me into a pretty big pessimist.
We have a shot this year. Down Navy team and mediocre Army. Let's make it two years in a row. The Army is going to roll along to another victory.

That said, most West Pointers are DBs...

Damn - shots fired. What’s your sample size for that assessment?

I went there and will freely admit that we graduate some cadets that aren’t the most likeable officers, but “most” seems like an aggressive pronoun.

My daughter's friend swims for West Point and is having a blast up there. I've Annapolis grads in the family and two of my sons friends are there now, plus they are in our conference. So Navy.

Conferences are a weird thing, aren't they?

In years past, I would have rooted for Army. But since Navy has joined the AAC, I feel compelled to root for the Middies. I feel like somehow, if Navy loses, it will be yet another thing held against UConn.

So...go UConn!!!...I mean....Navy! ;)

I root for Navy but I think Army wins this one. Better QB and defense. Plus the Navy coach makes some bad decisions at times. Last year he opted to punt on 4/4 with about 4 minutes left (I think) and Navy trailing 21-17. Army just ran out the clock. Army this year by 28-24.

Should be an AAC game. AAC with Army would be slightly better than AAC without.

Army to AAC is a slam dunk move that needs to happen. They would provide a local game for UCONN, a tremendous travel venue that draws well, and with their current coach they are now a good team. If only we could convince Air Force or BYU to come with them.

My first college game was Air Force at Army (1979). I liked Army until Navy joined the AAC.

Go Navy.

That is the only trifecta of teams I'd be interested in adding as well.

I'd add four.

Army, Air Force, and any two out these three: Colorado State, BYU, Boise.

The Navy unis are really pretty. I think that using the Blue Angels theme is lame. Much respect for the skill, ability, and focus of the pilots but they're a show unit.

I feel like the uniforms are a SEO move for everyone googling about the Navy pilots drawing the penis.
