That's a tricky line. ND waxed them last year but Navy really sucked losing 7 games. The three years before (when they only lost 3-4 games each year) they beat or play ND close.

Just don't know what type of team Navy is supposed to have...their usual 3-4 loss season or last year's crap-fest.

Notre Dame is irrelevant. I hope Navy throttles them.

I had tickets to this game, but some family issues happened and we aren't going anymore

One of my friends plays for Navy, I love Ireland, my uncle was a Naval submarine captain and went to the academy. I grew up watching them play. I hope they win.

Too bad because it's in Ireland everyone will be blowing ND

Navy will be a borderline bowl team again this year. Last year they lost five games by three points or less, including at South Carolina. Trey Miller split time last year and still has a learning curve with the triple option. I think Navy could eke out a win here if ND doesn't show up.

Do the people in Ireland know that Notre Dame has black players on their team? Ths can turn into a racial Euro soccer scene if their not informed....

How many Midshipmen are Navy bringing? Would be cool if they got a few C130s and flew them all there for the game.


I always enjoy Navy-Notre Dame and Army-Navy games.
