Does anybody know where I can find the Navy football schedule for the 2008-2009 season? I can't find it anywhere. Thanks.

TOWSON?!?  They're a 3-8 FCS (div II) team.  At least Delaware is one of the best div II teams and better than a lot of BCS division teams.

The Birddog is the best source of info on future Navy football schedules and just about anything else you need to know about Navy football.  Go to the site (http://thebirddog.wordpress.com/) and click the future schedules link at the top of the page.

Gotta agree -- Towson has me scratching my head.  For that matter, I'm not sure why we schedule 1AA/FCS teams.  We get no credit when we beat them and it's a bad loss when you lose.  Plus, few people recognize all of the advantages that 1AAs have (playing transfers immediately, etc.)  Take them off of the schedule and put on a mid-grade 1A team.

We need to change it up a little bit. I realize sched is done far in advance and with contracts but some of these teams are getting a little old.

The only way Navy should ever play Towson would be a pre-season game for laughs, just to let our offense goof around and run up about 100 points.

I agree playing 1AA teams does nothing for us considering we seem to loose to them way to often. I would also like to drop teams like temple and ball st and put in some southern teams like florida anm or houston. Teams that are at the same level of us and bowl worthy will give more credit.

What would you think about Georgia and Navy hooking up for some football? I've been a Navy fan since I spent a week there at a wrestling camp way back when I was in better shape. Geez I miss those high school days. Anyway I think it would be an interesting matchup.

By the way...GO NAVY, BEAT ARMY!!

The wins over FCS teams do count toward bowl eligibility.  Townson is a local team that will generate some local interest.  Every team in the country does this at the beginning of the season.

So losing to Ball State makes them not worthy. WOW.... what does that make your team .How soon your selective memory kicks in.

Maybe you can prove your worthiness on sept 6 in front of a National audience in Muncie IN.

As far as the rest of your schedule goes, you will not face a better offense than the one you will see on Friday night .

o and 2 vs BSU !!!!!!!!

xcardinal,

Who rattled your cage?  Nobody in this thread said anything about Ball State.  We're talking about FCS teams on our schedule.  And we look forward to crushing BSU after we warm up with a local pickup game next season.

 If you think Ball State is not a worthy opponent and you would get more credit playing Houston. Please do some quick homework my friend.

Nate Davis is already projected as the  third QB to  be picked in the 09 NFL draft. As far as you crushing Ball State. What happened on your home field just a few short months ago. Losing in OT certainly isnt crushing us.

Now calm the _____ down and bring your team to Indiana and take the field.

Good Luck.

Go Cards!!

Dude--are you mental or what?  OK, lets try this again.  I'm going to type slowly, so you'll understand.

 

Towson and Delaware are FCS teams.  These were formerly called NCAA Division 2 teams.  These schools are on a different tier than BCS teams (formerly called Division 1).  Navy and Ball State are in the BCS category.  Towson and Delaware are not.  Look at the betting odds on a week when Navy plays Delaware--there are no odds given because Navy is playing someone below it's peer group.  That doesn't mean Delaware isn't any good, they're always pretty good and have upset us quite often.  So it's a non-winnable situation for the BCS division team.  If you win, it doesn't really count for anything because you were supposed to win against the smaller school.  If you lose, it kills you--much more than if you lost to another BCS team.  Towson is nowhere near the quality of Delaware, which is usually in contention for the FCS championship. 

 

Ball St. had a good team last year. They beat us and they played in a Bowl game.  Now stop dropping the bad acid and we'll see you in the fall.

Yea I think we are pretty clear on the status of DII teams not giving you any boost.

Your Other poster simply said he would ALSO like to drop teams like Ball State and pick up teams like Florida A&M and Houston who are bowl legit teams and would give more credit to your schedule.

Read his post slowly. Possibly you are the one jumping out of your skin here.

His name is monkey something.

I havnt said one thing negative about Navy Football. Just wont put up with any talk about the Cardinals not being a creditable bowl team/opponent.

Mental no. Ready for the season .... bring your lunch box because its going to be an all day job for you this year.

Go Cards !!!

xcardinal,

OK, now I see the Ball st. remark in MONKEY's comment.  I guess I'd better cut down on the coffee. 

Looking forward to this years matchup with you guys.  We'll be fired up to get some payback for last year!

Game vs BALL STATE has been moved to Friday Sept 5th. Friday night ESPN Special ! Only game on at that time..... with a huge Saturday slate the next day we should get more viewers than we know what to do with  just because the fans are starved for college football. This might hurt the local and surrounding area High School "Friday night lights" theory but this is exactly what Ball State needs to be doing.  

Should be a fantastic game with lots of scoring ! No doubt we will pack Scheuman Stadium for the re-match of Navy and Ball State.

This is the first real test for both teams with Ball State warming up on Northeastern and Navy getting a sure win vs Townson the prior week.

Go Cards!!
