Great, great win

Army and Navy say hold my beer

I mean great stories and I want to see both do well...but I'll be very surprised to see them ranked with legitimate schedules...I will make a prediction. I expect at least one will be ranked by the last game of the season. Each really only have Notre Dame as legitimate competition. Navy also hosts Tulane who is pretty good this year. So 3 total opponents left worthy of a Top 25 team's schedule.

Wins so far
Army:
Lehigh
@FAU
Rice
@Temple
@Tulsa
UAB

Navy:
Bucknell
Temple
Memphis
@UAB
@Air Force

If you dive into the schedules played so far really only Memphis is a VG win. The AAC is very weak this year.

All of what you say is true, but if either of those teams finish the year with one loss to ND...I could see the playoff committee putting them in. If, in the grand scheme of things, they end up a legit top 15 then I think they get a little extra juice to make the playoff. What better feel good story could there be than a service academy making the first expanded playoff?

It will be interesting if Boise and one of the service academies both finish 12-1. Boise should get the higher ranking based on strength of schedule, but will they put Army/Navy in as a second G5?

Navy beats ND this year.

For two G5s to make it, they would both have to be Top 12. Chances are the best G5 will barely be inside the Top 20.

5-1, 2 top 25 wins, 2 road wins including a top 25 one and a conference one.

This is SU football.
