Highlights of the Army/Navy game, with live extended versions of each school song.

This game is so important. A win tonight gives us our third 20 win season in a row. A win tonight makes Skokna the winningest 4 year rambler on senior night. A win tonight all but secures us the important 2-seed for arch madness.

With the 5pm UNI start and 6pm Loyola start on Saturday, if we win tonight, we should know by midway though the second half against Bradley if we are playing for another MVC title.

This is a big one. No excuses.

Agreed on all counts...except I believe we play at 1pm on Saturday. ESPN2 chose the UNI/Drake for their featured evening game. So we were dropped to the 1pm slot on CBSSN.

I know this is a bit presumptuous, but would it help our NET if we won by more than 10 points tonight.

Oh nice! Thanks for telling me about the 1:00 pm start! for some reason it's 6:00 p.m. on my calendar and on the ESPN App

I also forgot that a win tonight means we successfully defended home court in the Valley, which is what great programs do.

Good to see you back, Brot.

Also good to see Krut hit that mid range shot.

Frustrating. This isn't a good team, but we are playing super sloppy. And giving up open looks from 3, can NOT do that against Drake.
