As long as we play Navy every year we have no need to play Army, so yes.

If I had to choose between attending away games at Army or Navy, I’d pick Army again. Gameday at Army is as if you jumped into the Wayback Machine to a place that never really existed. Super nice folks everywhere. Respectful treatment of opposing fans. I swear even the parking lot attendants call you sir. Navy, OTOH, is harder to get to and unless you are Naval Academy Class of XX you are parking way far away and taking a yellow school bus shuttle. There doesn’t appear to be a “there” there for the stadium although once inside it’s nice. Fans are a lot more snarky although nothing approaching a civilian school. Fall scenery at Michie Stadium is loads better too.

all true but Navy is in our conference for football, so there is no avoiding them. Army on the other hand........

Point taken. Plus, now that UConn and Temple are too, we have those touchstones for Northeast alumni already.

Well, as a season ticket holder (and game-attender), I guess that's what I'll do. That said, I don't think Missouri State is doing much for the other buttercups out there. You coming down for that one?

There's no complex. The home schedule is kind of a relevant thing to a football program.
