The whole romance behind Army-Navy is how the coaches practice all year for the game. There was an article written about it.bpfeifer wrote: ↑Sun Dec 15, 2024 9:47 pm One of the things Monken mentioned in the post game presser was that they shortened practices in an attempt to get healthy. Wondering if that strategy takes away from time to actively work against the Navy schemes and also if it takes the team out of their normal routine.
Other thing that had me perplexed…. The announcers realized quite early that Navy was shifting their linemen after 15sec left on the 25sec clock. Thus, the mic to Daily’s helmet was cut prior to the shift. Wouldn’t it have been prudent, especially since we we coming from behind, to start snapping the ball earlier to throw off the Navy shift?
We got outcoached. Monken is the figurehead, cheerleader-type head coach. It works well with good assistants and if the team is fired up.
