I'm equating this loss to a Danowski, slow Duke season start type loss.  The sky isn't falling, last week several people on this forum mention losing as being a very distinct possibility.  Army had the week refocus and sharpen their game after UVA and did so impressively.  Disappointing? Yes, extremely.  Season ending, absolutely not.  This could be the best thing to have happen.

The good news is that all the hype about "Unfinished Business" and "Championship or Bust" and picking up where they left off last season just got completely kicked to curb.  If a loss like that doesn't humble and refocus a team nothing will.  There were no moral victories, it was a good old fashioned a$$ kicking for 3 quarters.  I'm hoping all the 5th year senior leadership takes over and some personal pride and hard work is exuded from this point forward.  They proved the ability was there in the 1st quarter.  I think the team got a cruel reminder that people don't fear the Orange anymore and wins have to be earned with 4 quarters of work.

The bad news, UVA is in good form.  Gonna be a steep hill to climb this week.  Giddy up boys!
