It marked only the fifth time in this century a quarterback didn't win. Now Travis Hunter is a dual-sided player.
plays both offense and defense, but it's his incredible speech that has everyone talking. Probably the most shocking part to everyone was that Travis Hunter admitted he did not know who Lil Wayne was until his fiance introduced him to the music. This is as Lil Wayne sat next to his head coach, Coach Prime Deion Sanders, and Deion's son and a team's quarterback, Shadeur Sanders. In college football as well, Army-Navy was the big game this last weekend.
It's the most patriotic game of the year and Navy stun number 22 ranked Army who's only lost one game this season. To add insult to injury, Army found out that their bowl game opponent, Marshall, had to pull out of their bowl game due to a complete transfer portal decimating, due to the transfer portal completely decimating their roster with at least 25 players leaving.
