bosox Posted October 9, 2004 Posted October 9, 2004 ...its Army. What a game, we (Army) almost blew it in the 2nd quarter, but they held Cincinatti to no 2nd half points. Pretty exciting for Army fan(s), since its been since 2001 since they won at home, and 19 games since they won period.Game Recap
Dilbert Posted October 10, 2004 Posted October 10, 2004 Congrats Army but as a Cincinnati Bearcat fan this sucks!!! Signature intentionally left blank

Cyclopsis Joe Posted October 10, 2004 Posted October 10, 2004 No one in their right mind's care!YAY! I don't speak for democrats, democrats don't speak for me.
budbowl77 Posted October 10, 2004 Posted October 10, 2004 my god...it happened..Army did it...I'm a Navy fan but I live in the Hudson Valley so in honor of the Black Knights first win in quite awhile...here goes...The Army team's the pride and dream Of every heart in gray,The Army line you'll ever find A terror in the fray;And when the team is fighting For the Black and Gray and Gold,We're always near with song and cheer And this is the tale we're told:The Army team ...On, brave old Army team,On to the fray;Fight on to victory,For that's the fearless Army way.
CDunn Posted October 10, 2004 Posted October 10, 2004 I have no idea why Army, Navy, and Air Force compete on such a high level(they are D-I, right?)They can't recruit guys for obvious reasons which puts them at a distinct disadvantage. Yeah, you've got to be a pretty athletic and fit person just to go to one of those academies, but they are guys who are strong and can run and stuff, not guys with cannons for arms or have a natural scoring touch to win hockey games. They should be placed at a level where they don't get embarrased all the time. It's kind of sad and embarrasing to have the most elite colleges in America and the future of our military and government go 19 games without a win.Good for Army, but for some reason I've always been more drawn towards Annapolis to cheer for. I always root for Navy in the Army-Navy games.
MJWalker45 Posted October 10, 2004 Posted October 10, 2004 I believe they are right to play in Div I-A. If you applied the same standard of wins and losses to teams across the board, you'd only have about 30-40 teams in Div I-A and about 300 in DivI-AA. Army's main problem is playing in a stronger mid-major conference, well until Cincy, Memphis, and Louisville leave. It should be a lot easier for them when they become independent next year. And Air Force traditionally fields one of the tougher teams in the MWC and Navy has shown great improvement. Mainly because of coaching, as they are using the same players they had 2 years ago. Army will improve with Ross, the question will be how long will he stay at West Point? Â Â
sc49erfan15 Posted October 10, 2004 Posted October 10, 2004 And Joe Nemechek won today in the U.S. Army car, congrats to Army for the sweep this weekend! Well deserved.

Actually i think Army is also leaving next year, to a different conference from UofL, UC,and UM Signature intentionally left blank
sc49erfan15 Posted October 10, 2004 Posted October 10, 2004 I'm pretty sure Army's becoming independent, which is where they belong.
bosox Posted October 11, 2004 Author Posted October 11, 2004 I'm pretty sure Army's becoming independent, which is where they belong. Yea, this is their last season in C-USA.
Cyclopsis Joe Posted October 11, 2004 Posted October 11, 2004 In other news..the US Army stock car driven by "Front Row" Joe Nemecheck won at Kansas Speedway today. I don't speak for democrats, democrats don't speak for me.
