LET'S TALK FOOTBALL!

[u/Alexgoodenuf]

Well done, fellas.

Offense and special teams crushed it today. Defense had some typically mediocre drives but looked pretty capable when getting aggressive and putting on some pressure.

Nice to see our young backup QB break a big run too.

Go Army! Crush the birds.

Beat Navy!

[u/Sierra-051]

Cherry on top

[u/Diis]

Holy shit.

[u/bluediamondsm]

This is a crazy weekend for the conference but honestly keep it up Army and hopefully Navy wins later too all for my benefit 😭

[u/Alexgoodenuf]

Lol flipping the bird as your touchdown celebration when you're down 49-23 is certainly a possible thing to do.

[u/sonofamitch30]

Let’s see Hellum get a 6th. God I remember my plebe year only winning like 2 games

[u/Alexgoodenuf]

Refs just want to see another Hellums touchdown... Like the rest of us

[u/Sierra-051 → u/Alexgoodenuf]

This sparks joy

[u/Adorable-Lunch5475]

We’re playing like 2nd half vs navy and fiu game . Literally just have to run the ball and we’re cooked

[u/Diis]

It was a good attempt, FAU. I'll give them that.

[u/sudo_journalist]

Just switched to this game, wtf. Classic American shenanigans playing the academies.

[u/Alexgoodenuf → u/sudo_journalist]

I don't know what to tell you. Army see bird mascot, Army eat bird mascot.

[u/cathny → u/Alexgoodenuf]

Bird remind army of Air Force and navy aviation. Army hate that

[u/United_Energy_7503]

Sad field goal alert!

[u/Alexgoodenuf]

Defense doing a thing!

[u/cathny]

FAU when they aren’t play western-central arkansas Baptist school for the blind at home:

[u/Particular-Way-3805]

Belt to Azz

[u/Muffinnnnnnn]

What the heck is happening

[u/flyntcoaltrane]

American cannibalization continues, wtf FAU 

[u/United_Energy_7503 → u/flyntcoaltrane]

AACannibalization

[u/BossHawk8754]

Uh FAU what the fuck is this shit

[u/Particular-Way-3805]

Game over

[u/Diis]

Jesus, FAU.

[u/Particular-Way-3805]

wtf FAU

[u/NoonTimeHoopsMVP]

I miss Ross Tucker on color.

These current guys are awful.

[u/Best-Relative-8824 → u/NoonTimeHoopsMVP]

Be thankful it wasn’t the production level of last week at LA Tech

[u/AFC-Wimbledon-Stan]

4 Rushing TDs in one half is crazy

[u/NoonTimeHoopsMVP]

Scared to death of FAU?

That isn't the fearless Army way, Monken! We don't fear schools without titles!

[u/NoonTimeHoopsMVP]

Hilarious DOINK

[u/cathny]

Famous FAU instagram comment section troll MrJlovessports assured me that these guys were a powerhouse this year

[u/Tufoguy]

This first half looked like academy football. Hopefully they keep it up and Navy and Air Force copy the performance

[u/Alexgoodenuf → u/Tufoguy]

I don't know if 49 points combined in the first half is true Academy football.

[u/Tufoguy → u/Alexgoodenuf]

Just in the sense of control at the LOS. Long drives and taking advantage of turnovers.

[u/NoonTimeHoopsMVP]

Our famed prevent defense.

[u/United_Energy_7503 → u/NoonTimeHoopsMVP]

Big fan!

[u/Alexgoodenuf]

When did cadets start wearing the NCO black jacket with the collar?

[u/PhaetonsFolly → u/Alexgoodenuf]

They switched to black around 20 years ago.

[u/Alexgoodenuf → u/PhaetonsFolly]

Tracking that one. But a bunch of cadets in the stands are wearing the black jacket with the pointed collar.

[u/PhaetonsFolly → u/Alexgoodenuf]

I must have missed that. I'll have to look for it.

[u/steelersman007 → u/Alexgoodenuf]

Gotta be a last couple years change

[u/cathny]

Being behind Army with a 3 score deficit is maybe the worst situation you can face in a cfb game. These guys will just own the clock from here. Nobody can do it better

See: the USF game where they ate up the whole 2nd quarter on one drive

[u/NoonTimeHoopsMVP]

If we had a good SID, they would start a Hellums for Heisman campaign.

[u/NoonTimeHoopsMVP]

Hellums for Heisman!

[u/NoonTimeHoopsMVP]

Hellums for President!

[u/IMSYE87]

I'm no mathematician but 1:12 left on the clock is not enough time for Army to go down the field and score. We need at least 9 minutes

[u/Alexgoodenuf → u/IMSYE87]

Past performance not indicative of future results.

[u/Adorable-Lunch5475]

Yea we’re exposed like crazy, still a better year than I could’ve imagined for our football program standards

[u/NoonTimeHoopsMVP]

Let's double dip.

[u/aviator_60 → u/NoonTimeHoopsMVP]

Triple dip!?

[u/Paulista666]

Let's goooooooooo

[u/NoonTimeHoopsMVP]

Well, that worked well!

[u/Sierra-051]

They’ve been announcing Jayden Mayes getting carries in the stadium today, has he gotten carries or is it GP?

[u/NoonTimeHoopsMVP → u/Sierra-051]

Our PA is a sharp one!

[u/steelersman007 → u/Sierra-051]

That’s GP

[u/Sierra-051 → u/steelersman007]

Thanks!

[u/Paulista666]

Saved by a face mask

[u/NoonTimeHoopsMVP]

We always get fancy for no reason.

[u/Adorable-Lunch5475]

Our defense getting exposed worse than ever today

[u/Remote-Sector-9227 → u/Adorable-Lunch5475]

Dewhurst’s days are numbered

[u/SanDiego_Finest]

Might not even need to throw another pass against this run defense

[u/NoonTimeHoopsMVP]

We have to capitalize here.

[u/Alexgoodenuf]

First defensive stop wins!?

[u/Paulista666]

Finally!

[u/NoonTimeHoopsMVP]

DOINK!

[u/Paulista666]

No defense either on running or passing

Not good at all

[u/Citruspilled]

That was an insanely good play by Veltkamp

[u/malacul]

Defense is illegal

[u/United_Energy_7503]

Final score 72-70

[u/cathny → u/United_Energy_7503]

72-14 I think is more accurate now

[u/NoonTimeHoopsMVP]

We had better defense at Kip's Bay...

[u/Adorable-Lunch5475]

Wowwww

[u/Alexgoodenuf]

A rare win for the "Over" in an Army game.

[u/Alexgoodenuf]

This hardly seems worth the review.

[u/Remote-Sector-9227 → u/Alexgoodenuf]

waste of time

[u/Confident_Delay5805]

I want to see a world where army doesnt pass a single time in a game. That would be peak

[u/NoonTimeHoopsMVP → u/Confident_Delay5805]

We did it a few times under Monken.

It doesn't work anymore.

[u/Olangina]

That was some Tomfoolery that the defense fell for right there.

[u/Remote-Sector-9227 → u/Olangina]

the dewhurst experience. guy is trash

[u/grantem]

Gottem!

[u/Adorable-Lunch5475]

I will say, this is an awful matchup for our defense

[u/United_Energy_7503 → u/Adorable-Lunch5475]

In general going against a service academy is a nightmare

[u/Sierra-051]

Worried about defense in person today. Go Army!!!

[u/Remote-Sector-9227 → u/Sierra-051]

don’t worry

[u/Adorable-Lunch5475 → u/Sierra-051]

So am I 🤣

[u/Adorable-Lunch5475]

Going to be a big game for both teams

[u/Alexgoodenuf]

AHHH! LFGO!

What a great start to a Saturday

[u/ObitoUchihaTC]

Yikes

[u/twobabylions]

What a start

[u/United_Energy_7503]

lol. Lmfao even.

[u/United_Energy_7503]

Hey FAU and Army bros!

Don’t know what to expect here other than AACtion and chaos

[u/Alexgoodenuf]

Let's go boys!

Hoping to see Brady Anderson and Godspower on the field, but the reality is, I'm not really worried about our offense. Keep the penalties down and keep the chains moving slowly down the field and they will be fine.

This defense though.... It's rough and seems to be trending the wrong direction. Let's turn it around.

The Army hates birds. Beat FAU!

Beat Navy!
