NAVY, ARMY or Air Force in a BCS Bowl?

One day removed from Veteran’s Day, the question is: “Can a Service Academy reach a BCS Bowl?” Unfortunately, under the current system, the answer is no.

A lot of people still remember the days when Army dominated college football. Navy’s 7-3 record with a chance for 10 wins is probably the best you’ll see.

Two simple reasons: First, the size of players — now 6’6 325lb — isn’t quite what the Navy Academy is looking for. However, the top reason is the NFL! The lure of millions in pro football has talented players going elsewhere. I suggest if a player can get drafted after graduation from a service academy, they can play in the NFL, but must also work as a recruiter. I also suggest the mega-rich NFL match any service academy graduate’s salary with donations to helping injury veterans.
