We must force Navy to throw the ball. Stack the box with 8-9 on every play to stop the run. Play man with our corners. I'd rather get beat over the top on a long one than give up 16-20 play drives that eats 8-10 minutes off the clock. I cannot stand watching them win every 3rd and 4th down against us. Just my two cents worth.
"One remedy to stop the dive that in all likelihood will not work, is stacking the box at the line of scrimmage. If a defense brings everybody inside, it puts immense pressure on the OLB's and the CB's to get off their blocks and make a tackle if a pitch play is run. Since the offense reads the defense on every single play, this usually spells out doom for the defense."

If that's the case, then they shouldn't be able to run.

Watching some of the Georgia Tech - VIrginia Tech game gave me nightmares about option football, though.
