Comments on: FEAR THE GOAT http://thebirddog.wordpress.com/2008/05/05/fear-the-goat/ The Unofficial Peanut Gallery of Navy Sports Mon, 16 Nov 2009 07:37:57 +0000 http://wordpress.com/ hourly 1 By: Gary http://thebirddog.wordpress.com/2008/05/05/fear-the-goat/#comment-2104 Gary Sun, 22 Jun 2008 12:39:31 +0000 http://thebirddog.wordpress.com/?p=488#comment-2104 This has been a longtime agruement about Navy (especially from me) that they should join the Big East (arent they adding Buffalo soon?) and I know we would sacrifice the 8-9 wins seasons but should be able to go 6-7 wins that gets the Bowl games. I agree WVU/Louisville/ SFU/ Cincy may have too many "thugs" for us but we should be able to do ok vs the rest and every team has its Syracuse cycle-and agree I see Rutgers doing that soon too. We would need though to add 6,000 seats to NMC and is that even possible? It seems though the admin is afraid to make that move and right now with new coach-its smart to stay put but in a few years-WHY NOT? To me being in the middle and at times upper middle of Big EAST WOULD BE JUST FINE. But again we sacrifice those $$ to the conference-its a tough call but it sure would be interesting to see happen.

but they’re right…they’d want a cupcake team to bring in (like a duke or vandy) to help with the win column of the teams expected to compete for the BCS bids

i don’t think we’d beat WVU or Louisville (i don’t include Rutgers because I think they’ll fall off some with Rice leaving) on a consistent basis, but we’d throw an upset of the pitt variety vs WVU last year to screw them over enough
