Supposedly if Navy wins Saturday we have to wait another week to find out who goes to what bowl?

Is this true

Yes they could be eligible for a big bowl. They play Army in a week.

Yep. Especially if WMU loses Saturday.

Then a Navy win over Army puts them in the Cotton Bowl

if they win the American Conference... they're possibly in line for a New Years 6 game

but they play Army the week after... so we may have to wait for that result

Western mich wins they are going to give it to them.

And navy has to accept that reason they scheduled army late was so it would be as if their bowl game.

Army-Navy has been the last game of the academies' schedule as long as I can remember.

TV... When the NCAA only allowed conference championship games this weekend, the exception was Army Navy. Then the TV networks got the NCAA to allow conferences that didn't play championship games to also play this weekend. This is an unfair advantage for those conferences as it gave them an extra bye week. It gave the networks a full slate this weekend, which pushed the Army Navy game back a week to give it the exclusive time slot that it deserves.

Also, Navy joined the AAC and is playing in a conference title game against Temple.

I think they should just play Thanksgiving weekend. Maybe, give them the night game on Black Friday, or let them play on 2:30 on the Sunday after Thanksgiving.

Sit your arse down and wait. The US fricking Navy will tell you when you may proceed.

Actually, CSB, I used to work for a company (I quit to go elsewhere, wasn't fired) where I had to give weakly briefings to the US Navy on a project we were working on for them. I had to tell them regularly to sit down and wait. The U.S. Navy didn't proceed until I told them they could. That project finally was workingnat full capacity a couple months ago for them.

No one cares if you quit or were fired.

Well, if I hadn't said that, the response would have been that I'd probably gotten fired for telling the Navy to wait

It's obvious they fired you because of the weak briefings.

In addition to your illogical, wrong thinking, your last sentence was difficult to read.

this is asinnine

Navy has a bad loss to Air Force, and they got curb stomped. They were down 21 late, before a garbage Navy td with 10 seconds left.
