Game of the Week

Air Force Falcons at Navy Midshipmen
1:00 EST Comcast Sports

In a game presented to you by military insurance company USAA, the Navy Midshipmen will attempt to right their ship against Air Force. Navy's defense has been inept in losing two of their last three games. They beat Duke last weekend but not before the Blue Devils put up 43 in a losing effort. Air Force comes in off a schlakcing last week against in state rival BYU.

Eric Kettani lead a running game that had a two headed quarterback attack for the Naval Academy against the Dukies last week. Jarod Bryant came in to spell starter Kaipo-Noa Kaheaku-Enhada after he left winded in the fourth quarter. The downfall of this team has been the defense and if they play well the Midshipmen will win.

Air Force's new coach Troy Calhoun is looking to get his team rolling again after suffering his first defeat since he began piloting the Falcons. Shaun Carney will be at quarterback commanding the team at quarterback. Carney started nine games as a freshman for Air Force which is very impressive considering the training that students at the Academy must participate in before fall practice starts.

Navy will take its first step towards acquiring another Commander's and Chief's Trophy coming away with the win in a 37-31 game that will be hosted by the largest crowd in the history of Navy-Marine Corps Memorial Stadium (another bold prediction.) Carney will play well, but the Navy defense will come together to hold the rope and keep Air Force out of the end zone late. Mark it down.

Note: Watch out for Bob if you are at the game. He will be the only guy in the stadium wearing orange.
