BYU vs Navy

[BevoJoe]

No fans, no bands...only people directly associated with teams.

7-0 BYU Q1

Somebody tell Navy that "social distancing' does not apply in football

 

[BevoJoe]

Might be only for this game. That was the official announcement from the Naval Academy Athletic Association, but may have come from higher up.

The NAAA owns the stadium, paid for by former graduates

Score update:

BYU 55 Navy 3 4th Qtr still 7:26 to go.

 

[BevoJoe]

Geeeezzz. Navy turned it over. This has to be the worst Navy team I've seen in years.

But, at least it's live football and not a video replay from years gone by.

A few minutes ago, I talked to my son in the Marines stationed in Hawaii. One of the Sargents watching this game yelled out "God Damned Navy! Can't do crap! I don't want to be on a god damned transport run by these ********! We'll end up landing in the wrong fuckin' country!" We had a good laugh about that.

Finally came to a merciful end 55-3 BYU

Semper Fi first, but a lot of those Midshipmen are going to be Marines.
BYU drives me nuts, it’s like they have a full squad of 4 year redshirts

I reminded my son about that.

Yep, they do. They worked a nice benefit no other school gets that I know of. I was pulling for Navy, not a good night for them.

Utah and Utah State do it as well. I remember one year Utah State basketball had 8 or 9 guys aged 22-25.

Utah not so much. It is mostly Catholic, only about 35% Mormon.\

Utah State is about 70%.

Mormons were originally farmers and still are for a large percentage. Try buying a potato not raise by Mormons. That's why all cow colleges out West have large Mormon contingent - Boise State, Idaho State, and to a certain extent Oregon & Washington State.

I serve on the board of an international company with a Mormon from Southwestern Idaho. Like most Mormons, he has a brood of kids, mostly boys. Seems they own half of Idaho & eastern Oregon that they farm. He's the source of my "education" on the subject.
