Western Michigan has this thing with boats.

Specifically, coach P.J. Fleck has built a team motto around the concept of "rowing the boat" -- as in, everybody helping push forward in one direction.

Hey, whatever works. Coaches come up with odd things all the time.

And the stranger the battle cry, the more likely it is to get mocked by an opponent, which is what happened in the Idaho Potato Bowl.

After converting a two-point conversion against Western Michigan to go up 14 points in the fourth quarter, Air Force's Jalen Robinette had a little something for the row boaters.

Yep -- Robinette went there.

What's worse is there's not much Western Michigan can do. Air Force won 38-24.
