Just wanted to post my best wishes to the Mean Green in tomorrow's HOD Bowl. Make CUSA proud (unlike what we did yesterday in Ft. Worth)

No shame in the loss to Navy. I hope the Mean Green take UNLV to the woodshed.

He was refering to MT players hitting Navy servicemen out of bounds, trying to gouge players eyes out...etc etc.

MT's coach should be fired. The Blue Taters will never recover from they cheap shots yesterday. All of CUSA was given a black eye.

...yeesh. I was out in the mountains yesterday, only heard about the score. Wow.

I was at the game and I was fuming at the reckless and unsportsmanlike play by Navy's guys - so believe me, it wasn't a one-way street. That #62 for Navy is prepping to be an MMA fighter - let's leave it at that.

Let's GO MEAN GREEN. Beat the Rebels.

Sad the Muts of 2013 will be remembered for the deeds & actions of one player in the MT-Navy game. Right or wrong, black eyes are remembered much longer than accomplishments.

Much better to be remembered as a team that (1) recovered during the season and closed with five wins for an 8-4 record (2) a team that beat their division winner Marshall.

Oh, hell. I forgot Rice plays today. Best of luck to the Owls, too!

Well, in my opinion it was one rogue guy, not the entire team.

Yes, good luck to the Owls. Whip the tit pullers at Starkville....

Seriously dude, can you chill with the MUTS remarks? There is a smack forum if this is where you want to take it to.

The service academies are great, etc, but no one should be thinking that the people who attend them and play sports for them are angels. They can be just as dirty and unsportsman like as anyone. Don't put them on a pedastal (sp).

We had a couple of very nice NT guys sitting down from us yesterday at The MT/Navy game. Good to see that type of support from our conference mates.
GO MEAN GREEN!!!!

Sorry, you may have been at the game but weren't watching. The TV replays and slow motion clearly established it was a one way street. And before you say anything else, Southern Miss played Navy in Annapolis two years ago. They had the same blocking scheme. It isn't "chop blocking". Chop blocking is illegal and takes two people to make it happen. One to stand the defender up and the other to go low. They weren't doing that. Navy cut blocks. It is a perfectly legal block and DLine coaches will teach their DL to come off the ball with their hands out front to fend off/push off and get by. Every undersized OL (Navy, Army, Air Force, even GaTech) use it because it works with an option attack. The team that best mastered the technique was the Dever Broncos when Elway was there.

Unfortunately, MTSU and CUSA is getting a bad rap because a couple of undisciplined defenders couldn't contain their frustration and took to thuggery. They should have been benched.

Nope. You are 100% wrong. I was there and I have some news for you.

I'm sorry you don't know this already, but here it is - TV cameras don't capture everything. I wish I had taken video of all of the times Navy players roughed up our players after the whistle, and threw them hard to the ground when there's no need to do so.

Don't give me any bull **** about it being a ******* one way street. Get off your high horse and stop trying to put down your conference mates. Just because they play for a service academy doesn't mean what they do is right every single time. Gosh, gimme a break.

MT not getting good press for this. Sad.

It was a nasty game. Navy was playing ugly as well. I was shocked. Conduct unbecoming.

A week from now no one will remember the MUTS dirty play
