Here is your Saturday open thread. After 14 weeks of action, to be suddenly deprived of football is just the worst.

Fortunately, we have Army-Navy to ease us through until the bowls begin next week. This game is almost always close, even when the teams’ record is wildly disparate, as it is this year. The No. 23 Army Black Nights (10-2) are the host team today in Philadelphia vs. the Navy Midshipmen. The Middies have had a really rough year; some teams adjusted to changes in blocking rules relatively quickly, but Navy has not done so.
