Tulsa forced 3 turnovers in Navy’s first 3 possessions to go up 14-0, but TU couldn’t keep up the momentum and the Navy train rolled right over us for the rest of the game.We discuss the awesome start from the defense, Baylor Hayes, the lack of a deep ball so far, and more before awarding our players of the game and taking a look around what continues to be an incredible start for The American.After that, we welcome in Calvin Alexander from The CGA Tour to help us preview this Friday’s game at Oklahoma State – a massive game for both programs.Also, Matt has a new article on Patreon about what a “successful” first season under Tre Lamb would be!
