Military Bowl: Pitt vs Navy

[Techster]

Interesting game on multiple levels:

1. Pitt will be a common opponent for both GT and Navy. As we know, Pitt was able to beat us earlier in the season.

2. Difference in how Navy runs their offense versus us, and their tweaks since CPJ left Navy.

3. Will be the last game for one of the best QBs to ever run this offense. If you have not watched Keenan Reynolds this season, tune in. He is a wizard of the option, and great at timing and ball handling.

He seems to be Allowed to change play. On 2nd TD he started one way the WHILE BLOCKING CONTINUED THE SAME WAY - he cut back and waltzed into end zone.

We moved the ball pretty well against Pitt for most of the game, IIRC.

Navy should torch them, I think.

Pitt is a big strong physical team. They don't have the players just yet but I don't think Navy will have it easy with them at all.

Pittsburg kicker that kicked 53 harder to beat us just duck hooked a 25 yd FG! This was not our year

Watch the blocking on 91 ... I like how they block with the legal holding

So Navy just introduced a new formation. Double wing w/ no Bback and 3 true WR.

 

[Techster]

Ran I formation with 3 wideouts earlier. Ended up pitching off the I formation.

I've said it before I'll say it again. When CPJ decides to hang it up and if the option is still successful I hope like hell we try to make a run at Coach Ken N.

 

[iceeater1969]

When they run heavy - the WR 89'sprints toward the safety - wow I bet that makes him keep head on swivel.

 

[RyanS12]

Watching this depresses me... Reminds me how great we looked last season.

@Longestday Are Navy Guards in a 2pt stance. Im how loving how decisive Reynolds is with the ball in the passing game. Ball is not in his hand for more than 4 seconds

 

[ATL1]

Love the balance Navy is showing. They have a TE.

Love the balance Navy is showing. They have a TE.

And a FULLback.

Navy looks great.

I love watching our offense, even if it is Navy running it, This game shows how important it is to have a really good BBack and for the QB to run downhill. The OL helps when it blocks too. We will get ours fixed in Spring practice.

I like the wrinkles Navy is throwing in with the varying formations.

Ivin Jasper should get a look when CPJ moves on too.

Ivin Jasper should get a look when CPJ moves on too.

If CPJ would ever cede play calling duties...Jasper could be Assistant HC/QBs & BBs coach/OC with the understanding he would be HC.

Of course, those arrangements usually don't turn out well.

It was interesting GA Southern didn't make a run at Jasper.

 

[ATL1]

Pitt bowing up. I just don't think they have the talent yet.
