Many of the major college games this weekend were really scrimmages, but there were some straight results we want to bring you.
Navy beat Mount St. Mary's in a game that was way, way closer than the score makes it appear.
The NCAA D1 teams kick off their NIRA league seasons this coming weekend and we’re taking a look at it.
It's hard to imagine it could get any better.
OK, maybe it could. Neither team was perfect. But then again, neither team abandoned their way of playing. Neither team backed down even a little bit. It was, in the end, the most entertaining, the most intense, and the most dramatic D1A final you could wish for.
Navy advances to the D1A final for the second year in a row after the Midshipmen defeated Life University 27-17.
On a day of perfect weather and only a light breeze, the day centered around kicking, goalline defenses, and some key big players.
