Navy +3.5 1st half

Notre dame has injuries on offense. WR Theo Riddick will not play saturday. TE Rudolph is already out for season. And, WR Michael Floyd has a hamsting problem and will be a game time decision. Starting Safety Jamoris Slaughter has an ankle injury and probably will play but not too much.

IN last year's notre dame loss, wr floyd caught 10 passes for 141 yds and a td. IF Floyd does not play, Navy is definitely the play in the first half and the game.

Weather for saturday's game
-Sunny with a high of 64 and a low of 52. Winds at WSW at 10 to 20 mph. WInds are goin to make it tough for both teams to pass in this game.

Date Time Player Name Pos Status Injury Notes
10/20 4:32am Joe Buckley K Out Leg Buckley will be unable to kick in week eight against Notre Dame after having his leg taken out from under him in week seven, Expect junior Jon Teague to handle the field goal duties. Teague has only kicked field goals in one game in his college career, going 1-for-2 and 5-for-5 on extra points last year against Western Kentucky.
10/17 10:21am Emmett Merchant S Questionable Concussion Merchant has been unable to fully shake post-concussion syndrome recently and has not played the past two weeks. He's questionable to return in week eight against Notre Dame. De'Von Richardson has replaced Merrchant at safety when needed.
10/17 10:21am Vince Murray FB Questionable Knee Murray was knocked out of week six with a knee injury and could not go in week seven. He's questionable to return in week eight against Notre Dame. Alexander Teich has been elevated to the starter and third-stringer Delvin Diggs is in the mix as well.
10/15 7:12pm Shane Bothel DL Out Toe Starting nose tackle Bothel is out indefinitely due to a toe injury. While Bothel had been seeing the most reps on the interior of the defensive line, the Mids are stocked at the position with Chase Burge and Jared Marks both considered capable fill-ins.
10/10 9:17am Matt Molloy OL Out For Year Concussion Molloy has been downgraded to out for the season after suffering a concussion in week one and being out ever since. The starting right tackle is being replaced by Ryan Bransford in the starting lineup.

09/09 5:51pm Mike Schupp WR Out Knee Schupp is out until at least the Army/Navy game on Dec. 11 after partially tearing his ACL prior to week two. The starting WR is likely to be replaced by junior Doug Ferman, who almost won Schupp's starting spot in preseason camp.

ND is playing really good right now...I see them winning this one by 10+

[dmtrader]

I see it as a close game. Navy will confuse ND with the triple option offense and that running qb (who's healthy now).

Navy is 9th in the country against the pass.

Thanks for the info, Crusher.

Merchant being out for Navy is fvcking HUGE.

I was not aware of this until now.

Wow, I need to keep up to date with Navy here and here.....

navy +7 is the way to go

It's tough to compare last year and this year. Last year you had Weis as the coach who was on his way out. It was a talented team last year but had a ton of problems.

Now this year..... new QB. New coach. This team is starting to believe in Kelly. I was at the ND Pitt game this year. (Notre Dame led 20-3 at one point). I went to the ND pep rally. I went to the ND luncheon. Kelly has this team on the right track. Kelly has this team believing. They have the ND confidence back.

After starting the season 1-3 this team is starting to believe in their coach. They lost close games to Michigan State in OT (MS is having a great season), Michigan (who has a heisman QB that can really run), and then Stanford hit them pretty hard but Stanford again is having a great season.

3 straight wins and this team is now believing in their coach.

They are heading to Yankee stadium for their showcase game. I dont see them losing this game.

Just a little insight for you. GL on your pick.

not going to play if, would, or should, but Pitt screwed up 2 fg's in the 1st half in this game. That came back to haunt them. Notre Dame is one of the most overrated teams in all of college football because of their history. Their right behind Miami in my opinion.

It's Navy on the $$ line for me.

if nd cant move the ball tho the air they cant win here ,i like navy +
