Coach Ken Niumatalolo was not too upset when Navy's game at East Carolina, originally scheduled for Oct. 15, was postponed due to flooding caused by Hurricane Matthew. That's because the Midshipmen were pretty banged up at the time.
As it turns out, the Navy injury report was as long as it has been all season when the makeup game at East Carolina was played last Saturday. That is not surprising considering the Mids have not had an off week since that unexpected bye in mid-October.
There is no break in sight for Navy, which is facing the prospect of going nine straight weeks without any time off.
