It's like going to the dentist --

They do have a slippery QB and they are hard to get off the field. You have to blow up a play and knock them behind the sticks, because once they get anywhere near midfield they start going for it on 4th and 2 or less. I remember that horrible game where we were finally going to get them to punt because it was 4th and 7 and we got a substitution penalty and Kelly wouldn't burn a time out to avoid it so it was 4th and 2, they went, made it, scored a touchdown and we lost.

One of the announcers said last night that watching film it was clear that ND gets everyone's best shot, and nowhere is that more true than with Navy. Their cut blocking also has our DL looking at their feet.

I'm not worried about being able to move the ball on them. But with limited possessions, we need touchdowns, not yards between the 20-yard-lines.

I've seen them play some. I saw some of the Tulane game and one other. It's just we never see the team that other teams get to see.

I expect a frustrating 7 point win.
