Chet MoellerGUEST
Um, and, uh, it's something that I, I did a few years ago f- f- for, uh, the high school where my son, uh, and daughter went.
Chet MoellerGUEST
And, um, it, it, team being, the acronym being trust, enthusiasm, attitude, motivation.
Chet MoellerGUEST
And, uh, uh, first of all, I, I tried to explain, and I don't think any- anybody can understand this except the Horvath clan.
Chet MoellerGUEST
Um, and it, well, I s- call it the Horvath clan because he was, um, the QB, um, the last four years.
Bill WagnerHOST
connecting passes, and there's a lot of reasons for that.
Bill WagnerHOST
Probably the biggest reason is that, you know, two of the guys that were receiving passes had NFL, one had Alex Zender, Texa had a tryout with the Pittsburgh Steelers, and Eli Heidenreich plays for the Pittsburgh Steelers in his returning kickoffs, and the third, Blake Horvath, played at an extremely high level, you know, almost NFL prospect type level for two seasons.
Bill WagnerHOST
And Blake had an uncanny ability to be very efficient in the passing game.
Bill WagnerHOST
And, you know, Navy got into third and long second and long situations, the previous two seasons, they just had a remarkable ability to convert on those.
Mike JamesGUEST
But getting back to the pass game, it was interesting.
Mike JamesGUEST
If you go back and watch last season...
Mike JamesGUEST
I would say that you will be surprised how often that Blake Horvath got a pass off right before he got clocked.
Mike JamesGUEST
I
Stormy BuonantonyHOST
know these commanders and chief trophy games are very, very important, but I like Air Force in this spot too.
Stormy BuonantonyHOST
I tried to tell y'all in the offseason Navy without Blake Horvath is not the same and it certainly hasn't looked that way.
Jonathan Von TobelHOST
How about Zarka, by the way? Last game against Nevada.
Jonathan Von TobelHOST
Awesome.

Chris ServelloNARRATOR
And new this season, when possible, we

will add recent graduate and Navy standout Blake Horvath.
Chris ServelloNARRATOR
I'm producer Chris Cervelo from the Naval Academy Class of 99 with a fan's perspective.
Chris ServelloNARRATOR
And without further ado,
Bill WagnerHOST
It's a 6 p.m. Central start, which means 7 p.m. for those of us on East Coast time.
Bill WagnerHOST
Navy needs to bounce back from a disappointing loss to Florida Atlantic.
Bill WagnerHOST
And I want to say at the top of our show that we have decided to have Blake Horvath, the two-year starting quarterback for Navy, is going to join our team on a weekly basis.
Bill WagnerHOST
We initially had said he would make guest appearances, but we've decided Blake's good with his analysis, and he's going to now join us for the opening segment.
Bill WagnerHOST
So we're going to have Keenan and get his thoughts in the closing segment.
Bill WagnerHOST
But for the opening segment, we have another legendary Navy football quarterback, pinch hitting for Keenan, and it's none other than Blake Horvath, 2026 Naval Academy graduate, starting quarterback for Navy during the 2024 and 25 seasons.
Bill WagnerHOST
Blake is currently an assistant coach of the football team at the Naval Academy Prep School, and pleased to have Blake join us to provide analysis of the Florida Atlantic game.
Bill WagnerHOST
Blake, real quickly before we get started, how's the prep school team doing? Have they played a game? I know that last year they went unbeaten and beat the pants off of both Army prep and Air Force prep.
Bill WagnerHOST
And if you watched on TV or some people could see at the game, the Navy defenders were looking at to the sideline literally seconds before FAU snapped the ball.
Bill WagnerHOST
And safety Giuseppe Sessi, who's kind of the leader on the back end, said there was many times the Navy did not get lined up correctly.
Bill WagnerHOST
So, Blake Horvath, you as a quarterback, have learned to study defenses and know what you're seeing over there.
Bill WagnerHOST
But what was your thoughts on what you saw with Navy's defense in that first half that was so ugly? Just so people know, the first half ended with FAU winning 31-7.
Bill WagnerHOST
Were you concerned about the passing that Navy's got to be much more efficient throwing the ball than that.
Bill WagnerHOST
And for the previous two seasons, Blake Horvath was very efficient.
Bill WagnerHOST
And, you know, we are going to get in third and long on occasions.
Bill WagnerHOST
Blake Horvath was very good at converting those with a good pass through the air.
Mike JamesGUEST
No, he was, and the passing wasn't good, but the passing wasn't all on Braxton either.
Mike JamesGUEST
A lot of the plays that look like bad throws on his part, when you go back and watch the film, they actually weren't.
Rene IngogliaGUEST
So I watch, I do my prep work, and Navy, if you ever watch Navy, Army, you know they're going to run the crap out of ball.
Rene IngogliaGUEST
They threw it a little bit more with Blake Horvath last year.
Rene IngogliaGUEST
They have a quarterback, Braxton Woodson, really good.
Rene IngogliaGUEST
So in Florida Atlantic, their defense was their issue last year.
Jake FranklinGUEST
They had – Yeah, a quarterback sneak pop pass.
Jake FranklinGUEST
So I know when they had Blake Horvath there, he was a true dual threat QB.
Jake FranklinGUEST
And, you know, fourth and short looks like quarterback sneak, but then that tight end, he down blocks for just a second and then releases.
Jake FranklinGUEST
And it's just like, man, it sucks to scheme against these guys.
Bryan DriskellHOST
We said he'd be more Malcolm Perry than he was.
Bryan DriskellHOST
Blake Horvath, and for one game, that was true.
Bryan DriskellHOST
He went three of six passing and rushed for 200 yards.
Bryan DriskellHOST
It looked a little bit more like the old-school Navy offense than it did, which would be smart if they did that because that's just the kind of player Braxton Woodson is.
