This week, the guys take a look back at the 124th Army-Navy game, which saw a low-scoring affair that finished with a flurry of action.

They then get into the upcoming Lockheed Martin Armed Forces Bowl between Air Force and #24 James Madison, and how the Dukes team Troy Calhoun and company will face is not going to be the same that went 11-1 during the season.

The guys then welcome Bill Wagner (@billwagner_capgaz), Navy beat reporter for The Capital, who discusses the Midshipmen's quarterback dilemma and issues with the offense being unable to consistently put up points. But they also get into why Navy's front 7 may be among the best in all of college football and how they can use pressure for force Army to make mistakes.

They then delve deep into the Falcons' finish with Colorado Springs Gazette beat writer Brent Briggeman (@BrentBriggeman), discussing how Air Force's four-game losing streak to end the year appeared to affect the players, what sort of personnel changes could be coming for the coaching staff, and where the Falcons might be going for their bowl game.
