Navy is also on for '09 and '10...


But Navy recently announced the two teams will square off again in Annapolis, Md. in 2007. Keeler said Delaware will also play the Middies in 2009 and 2010. Navy had an open date in 2007 after the NCAA approved a 12-game regular season for football in April. The contest will give Delaware an 11th game.

"I think our kids believe that's a great game," said Keeler. "It's a great venue to play in. We're excited. We wanted to play them."

Doesn't say where the '09 & '10 games are probably either both in Annapolis or one at each place.

I doubt Navy is coming to the Tub

[bluehenbillk]

They've been here twice before, why not?

They've been here twice before, why not?
When's the last time they were there? I am guessing it is not real recent. Real IA's don't play at IAA's very often, Navy is a real IA who can actually draw fans. And by not being a real IA I mean

Using my best Jeff Foxworthy expression

You might not be a real IA if

you have spent any amount of time in the SunBelt

You play your "home games" at your opponents stadium

You hold OutKast concerts after your games hoping it will spike attendance

You claim 15k fans attended when by all counts the tally was around 5k

You go 10-1 and don't make a bowl game

You play in a 16,000 seat stadium

etc etc etc

Make that 3 times: The '85, '87, and '89 meetings were in the Tub.

i remember the 89 game. my freshman year and the last game of the season. the navy kicker misses a 20 yd. fg at the end to win. hens 10- navy 9.

same kicker booms a 40+ at the gun to beat army a couple of weeks later.
