    I say we LSU fans pull together this weekend and root for the Midshipmen. I always pull for the Armed Forces teams. And, of course, i always pull against the IRISH. GO NAVY!

    Navy has a good chance to beat ND and if so, it'd be the first time ever.

    Good choice of teams to adopt, after all LSU's nick(saban)name is "The Old War Skule" because of its military tradition / history.

    Actually it will be the first time since 1963 when Roger Staubach led the Middies to victory over Notre Dame on his way to winning the Heisman Trophy. The 41 consecutive defeats is the longest by one team to another team in college football history.

    Oh, I figured you did...I was just trying to impress everybody with my football knowledge! :lol:
    I know my stuff pretty well considering I'm only 20 and never once saw Staubach play in college or the pros.
