EIGHT FBS programs from the state of Texas (Baylor, Texas A&M, Texas Tech, Houston, SMU, North Texas, UTEP and UTSA) all qualified for and are playing in bowl games...but the UNIVERSITY of TEXAS is not. That one blew my mind. NO excuse for the Longhorns to be this bad. Too late to pull out of the SEC deal? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Irishman Posted December 8, 2021 Author Share Posted December 8, 2021 Glad to have seen this move back to its own weekend a couple years ago. So much to love and appreciate about this game. I have said it before but John Feinstein's book "A Civil War" is a must read about this series. Go Navy!!! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Feinstein references an Army fullback by the name of Coby Short in a couple of places in the book. Coby played football here in our state for Bedford North Lawrence. Center Grove's Alex Aukerman had a great career at Army, and ended up #2 in all time sacks. His team won a couple of the games against Navy, 2 CIC trophies and is currently serving as an officer at Fort Knox, KY.

Up until this year, Harbaugh had never beaten Ohio State or made the playoffs. Somehow that equates to him being a poor football coach. Earlier this year sometime, I put together a topic discussing the who the top football program in the country were over the last five years. Surprisingly, and quietly, Michigan graced a ranking of 6, 7, or 8 I believe. Anyway, they were in the Top 10, which is pretty damn good. It just goes to show you that the only thing fans seem to measure Michigan by is their ability to beat Ohio State and make the playoffs. That's a pretty high standard. Those affiliated with Michigan should be flattered. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
