In the Navy!!!!

I wan to give a major shout out to the Naval Academy. Their football team defeated Notre Dame today 46-44, in triple overtime. The win was the first for the Academy in 44 years.

I keep an eye on the Midshipmen because of their coach. Paul Johnson was the head coach of Georgia Southern University in the late Nineties and early on at the turn of the century. Growing up in Brooklet, which is ten minutes outside of Statesboro Georgia, I grew up a big GSU fan. After back to back 1-AA championships with GSU, Johnson took the head job at Navy,

Since the move, Johnson has led the midshipmen to winning records, bowl games, bowl game victories and now a historic win over the golden-domers.

I know that the Irish are in a down year, but don't let that fact dampen the glory of today's victory for Navy.
