00:00The 125th Army-Navy game on Saturday in Landover, Maryland, at the home of the Commanders.

00:11It's Northwest Stadium, and Joe, it's the second time it's ever been played directly

00:16outside of the nation's capital.

00:18It is going to be a great game between Army and Navy on Saturday, a game with the focus

00:24of college football, where the pageantry is on full display.

00:28I mentioned Bryson Daly to hit Pater twice.

00:32A number last week against Tulane in the AAC Championship game that was plus 220.

00:38He scored four times.

00:39A number that earlier this week was plus 120.

00:42If I lived in the Great Garden state of New Jersey, I would have bet it immediately.

00:46It is now minus 115.

00:48Still think the number is justified, because I do expect Bryson Daly to score twice.

00:54When you look at Navy's side, though, Blake Horvath, their quarterback, is healthy, expects

01:00to play, and he is as dynamic as you will see.

01:04Not quite the runner that Bryson Daly is, but 13 rushing touchdowns this year, and can

01:10also air it out just a little bit.

01:14Navy averaging more than 125 passing yards per game this season, the first time in nearly

01:19a decade since 2016.

01:23That's kind of crazy, Ben.

01:25Both these teams, top five in red zone offenses and finishing drives, they don't spend a whole

01:31lot of time kicking, Ben.

01:34Usually they're going for it, and I expect a lot of that here as well in this game.

01:40Maybe less special teams, way more going for it.

01:45One of these defenses is going to come up with a big play at some point in this game,

01:50and it could very well be Army here on Moult.

01:54Maybe a defensive touchdown might not be a bad look either at a pretty plus price.
