Wal's Army/Navy Game

**PeePee** · 12-12-09, 01:04 AM

GL to you Wal. Make sense risk/reward play.

**cmh329** · 12-12-09, 01:08 AM

Army plus the points doesn't seem like a bad bet. I think it could be close, but Navy is just a better team. I don't see Army winning outright. But Good luck.

**moodyt2** · 12-12-09, 01:24 AM

good luck. I may take the over

**The General** · 12-12-09, 01:32 AM

Best of luck. Just looked and seen how much the line has moved in favor of NAVY just today. Many 16's out there right now.

**tullamore** · 12-12-09, 01:37 AM

In my opinion a top 10 yearly sporting event.

**willowjoe3** · 12-12-09, 01:44 AM

go ARMY!

**Wheell** · 12-12-09, 02:47 AM

Take this from someone with two uncles in the military: No way that Navy lays down for Army. you are dealing with hyper competitive men going up against each other for a chance to prove dominance. The chance of a laydown is approximately 0. There is simply too much Rivalry between the branches of the military.

**1st and Ten** · 12-12-09, 02:57 AM

I think Army is a third rate team

Wal...your probably right...what can I say.

**PAPSMEAR** · 12-12-09, 03:07 AM

over is the play boys

**1st and Ten** · 12-12-09, 03:10 AM

Do either of these teams pass....?.....

that is very true.
In time the stronger, faster and better coached team will take over and win. Playing with high emotion can last only so long. Playing above your means can keep it close for a while.

If I were to do write-up on this game it would not support my play here. Navy is the better team. Overall Navy has the better talent. I am going with a hunch. If Army wins this game they are in a bowl over UCLA. Navy is already set and regardless of the outcome of this game they are going and can't improve. I just can't imagine knowing what money is available to teams for making a bowl game that some military folk haven't gotten together and decided this outcome already.

It's not a logical play based on stats or even the program for that matter. The program likes Navy by 18. I'm going on a hunch here.

Play:

Army +525*

being illogical is the best way to think in this biz

I have never seen a team look so horrible as I have Army when I've watched them this year. I bet on them as a dog vs N.Texas because of the history of that series, they own N.Texas & they won. I didn't watch the game because when I bet on a team as sorry as ARMY to win, what does that say about the other team. I'm sure I've seen Pee-Wee games with better talent & play calling.

I bet on them another time this year as a dog. Not because they were a dog, but because who was a favorite...VANDY. Anyone who would play Vandy as a DD Fav needs to stop betting! Anyway, I have played this sorry ass team twice this season as underdogs and they have won SU both times! They have everything to play for this week, NAVY nothing but pride. Look what happened to Navy at Hawaii. They had just received their assignments & maybe were more concerned of getting injured? Maybe thinking about their upcoming 18 month vacation to lovely Iraq or a submarine?Service academy games are hard to cap, when they're playing each other it's almost impossible! All the Seniors on the field this Sat. are officers in the Army, Navy, & Marine Corp. & the majority of them are headed to a war zone.

**THE PROFIT** · 12-12-09, 03:27 AM

The General has 666 points. This would be a good time to give some to somebody

**tblues2005** · 12-12-09, 03:31 AM

Army is the play from wal money line. Wow. I sure did not expect that. I was thinking about taking the points.

**rm18** · 12-12-09, 03:37 AM

talking about bowl games does not make any sense, this game is much bigger

**MexicanStallion** · 12-12-09, 03:55 AM

I have Army +16. Hope we both cash

**iceminers26** · 12-12-09, 06:16 AM

Like it but back it up with the points as well, good luck

Well said. I personally think that Army keeps it within 2 touchdowns today for those reasons, and especially since Navy shut them out last year. Army +15.5 is the play in my opinion. Good luck fellas!

**Wrigley** · 12-12-09, 11:14 AM

Army and the points cant see them winning straight up

**tblues2005** · 12-12-09, 11:45 AM

I am taking the points here also. I sure can see it being closer than 2 TD's here since Navy does not have anything at stake here.

**masr** · 12-12-09, 01:26 PM

Going with NAVY -13.5 (-150)
Better team

**BigdaddyQH** · 12-12-09, 01:31 PM

I sure hope that the Army wins. If Uceless get into the Eagle Bank Bowl, their Band will out number their fans. UCLA has one of the worst alums in BCS conference football. They really do not deserve to be in any bowl. If the Army wins, the Core of Cadets show up en masse. Besides, UCLA will lose that game, ruining the Pac 10's chances at winning that silly award they give to the conference with the best overall bowl record.

**SportNut** · 12-12-09, 01:37 PM

Army for me....

**pavyracer** · 12-12-09, 01:53 PM

Good luck Wal.

**boba** · 12-12-09, 01:54 PM

this is a better army team than last year and a shittier navy team than last year.

ARMY AND THE POINTS.

by the way, who recruited the hawaii qb that became a navy coach when he was a first year coach for hawaii back in the day.

**RJBucs** · 12-12-09, 02:12 PM

going with army +15.5. GL gents

**wal66** · 12-12-09, 05:31 PM

FAIL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

**jjgold** · 12-12-09, 06:23 PM

Army gave them a good fight, I thought they had a good chance to win.
