CINCINNATI – Navy football is playing for pride at this point.
Beating archrival Army is the only goal still attainable.
A disappointing and demoralizing season hit rock bottom on Saturday at Nippert Stadium as Navy was blown out by Cincinnati, 42-0.
It was an absolutely ugly loss that left Navy with a 2-7 record with four regular season games remaining. That means the Midshipmen have been mathematically eliminated from bowl contention as there is no chance of finishing with a winning record.
Actually, I guess there is an incredibly remote possibility of Navy sneaking into a bowl through the backdoor by finishing 6-7.
