Live Blogging: End of the 1st Half EagleBank Bowl

So we've gone into the half with a score of 13-7 Navy. That's a little more like it, although it was still a frustrating quarter. Neither team looked terribly impressive during the majority of this half. Wake had a missed field goal that hit the side bar. For a while that was looking like the story of the game for Wake, until late in the half. Navy was driving on Wake, but decided to stick to their pass game. Kaipo-Noa Kaheaku-Enhada threw the pass, which was a decent ball, but he overthrew his receiver by a good 5 yards right into the hands of Wake defender. His passing has looked pretty lousy most of the game, most of the time it isn't on target and their quite the ducks. Wake put together quite the impressive drive for the score off of that interception. Of course, even that had a bit of a story. There was a play ruled originally as a fumble returned for a TD by Navy that was reviewed and rightfully overturned. The ballcarrier was clearly down. Wake opened up their passing game and drove the field well. When they first entered the red zone though, they were sent back with a holding penalty that looked like it might have caused a problem. However, Skinner threw a great pass to D.J. Boldin (probably the key player on this drive) to get them in position for the score. After two consecutive rushes by Josh Adams, he took it in for a touchdown.

Surprise, surprise, Wake decides to open up their passing game and they score. Hopefully coach Jim Grobe has finally woken up. The commentators keep mentioning that the pass finally is working out for Wake, but that isn't the issue. Skinner isn't being given the opportunities, or at least wasn't until the end of the first half. We'll see how the play calling goes from here.
