First class move and something I think that others would be well served to follow suit.
Without these great men and women in uniform we would not have the ability to coach this game we all love!!!

Notre Dame does it and have done it for a while. We cheeer for them and then sing the songs with them. I was at the game two years ago when they beat us and most of the fans stuck around to clap for Navy.

Both teams running onto the field together was a great moment. Showed the class of the Ohio State and Navy programs. Very good game as well.

I just found out that the punch heard around the collegiate world in Boise was actually BEFORE the game. I only saw the LOWlights on ESPN that evening and assumed it was post-game. I'm still not 100% sure when it happened because I haven't seen a full report. Doesn't matter.
It's too bad that players/teams can't reciprocate the same respect that has been mentioned on this thread. Whether it's Navy, Army, Air Force, state university, private university, rival, whatever. Didn't we all come into this game with a certain love for the brotherhood? I don't say this to minimize the impact our armed forces have on all of us.
Seems like respect should extend beyond the same color uniform since we are in the greatest country in the world.
Just a thought.

That was certainly a classy move by Ohio Sate and their faithful. As a former serviceman,it's always nice and fulfilling to be recognized for one's service to their country. I do hope that other schools extend this tradition far beyond this season.
