Houston Bowl - NAVY vs Texas Tech

[abracadabra1]

Here's a game with a very classic ground-pounding running game vs the more contemporary aerial assault. So what do we think? Will Tech's flimsy defense be able to handle the Midshipmen running game? Or will Tech's passing game overwhelm the DBs of NAVY?

You know where my money lies....

GO NAVY! BEAT TECH!

Go Navy! Aren't they supposed to have a decent secondary?

Yeah, the secondary is pretty decent...though a bit small.

But don't forget those intangibles!

Ouch, 3 Tech votes...weigh in Texans...I'm interested in what you have to say :beer:

The problem is it will take 8 minutes for the seamen to score one time. Tech can put up 28 points in the same timeframe.

seamen? NAVY is definitely not a brigade of seamen.

I agree that Tech's passing game can put points on the scoreboard much quicker than the laborious run-game of NAVY, but keep in mind that NAVY generally controls the ball for a longer period of time than its opponents because of the run, so it might balance out.

I had the displeasure of watching Tech (from the first row behind their bench) score 28 points in the fourth quater to almost win the game. That pass game will just wear a defense out. I think tech will walk all over Navy (nothing aginst Navy, and believe me I don't like Tech, just what I think)
