9-3 all losses to conference foes.
Hawaii and San Diego are virtual home games the sacrifical lamb in Lehigh. Army goes down.
Houston, Memphis, UCF and a tough game with Temple. Think Houston can get them with Big Ed and UCF is loaded again.

Lehigh is our Hawaii rule 13th game - so I assume you mean 10-3?

Well damn, need to go back to school lately. My counting has been terrible with navy. 10-3, probably 11-3 with a bowl win.
Kudos to your scheduler too. Nifty trick. The away game at Hawaii gives you the extra home game. Hawaii is going to damn near be a home game. Even by playing the ND home game on a nuetral field it's still really a home game.
So in reality you have
5 true home games
2 neutral/home game
1 away/neutral game
If you pull off a home AAC championship game that would be a crazy run of a good season with 9 games where you had the crowd.
I have them at 10-3 as well. Losses to Memphis (of course), Notre Dame and at UCF. I think Houston is a tossup, but I give Navy the benefit of the doubt b/c I'm a Navy vet.

I would love to play Navy at their home field in the American championship game again.
Lehigh Mountain Hawks win bigly.

Lehigh knocked Navy out of the MLax tourney.
You maybe should cherish that through 15 Sep and beyond....

I would like that for revenge purposes.
But I'm already not completely sold on the reg season game given how good Nutile looked against us last year.
7-5 or maybe 8-4. They're decent heading into this year. The schedule is nasty, though.

The nastiest part of the schedule is travel mileage - Navy will log more miles than any team other than Hawaii.
We get Memphis, Houston, Tulsa at home, and Memphis with a new quarterback in week 2. I''m not scared of going into Cincy or Orlando
ND in San Diego adds to the mileage, but that will be more home field than when we play ND in the Meadowlands (Jax was reportedly 60-40 Navy crowd, way better than when we get northeast US subway fans; I have already posted here that Navy outdrew SDSU in the Poinsettia Bowl).
I guess I'm asking what is nasty about this schedule? Other than total travel mileage, this is business as usual.

New face at QB + a bunch of games that while winnable, can very easily all be lost. Navy were in a bunch of close scraps with the AAC West last year - Coach Ken needs to pull more magic next season if you're expecting a run.
Hawaii and Lehigh are the automatics for Navy, but everything else has some level of worry attached. It was very hard to figure how good Navy was when just about everyone in the AAC played you tight (regardless of record).

Coach Niumat isn't where the magic will come from. OC and QBs coach Jasper will not be distracted by his son's heart transplant concern. Last year's un Navy like penalties and turnovers will be gone. Along with the bad play calling with a lead that let blowouts like Cincy and AF turn into close games.
