Not as fun as the last couple times when the Irish torpedoed them from the jump, but I won’t turn down a two-touchdown lead at the break, a second half where the Midshipmen never had the ball with a chance to take the lead or even tie, a four-yards-per-snap advantage overall and a final score that anyone scanning the day’s results would just gloss over due to its comfortable nature. The Irish are 8-1 and barring a disaster of sorts I do not want to imagine at this moment they are on track to reach double-digit victories for the fifth consecutive autumn. The season is already three-quarters of the way over so I hope you are savoring every second of this because it will unfortunately be over very soon.
