After Army and East Carolina gave the American Conference more Thursday night exposure last night, the league will have four more games tomorrow. It’s still early, but we’re starting to see plenty of positioning for the College Football Playoff within the league. One team will try to rebound from a Power Four loss while another […]
Well friends, like my father always used to say, “Sometimes you get the bear, and sometimes the bear gets you.” Last night, things did not go our way. We said coming into last night’s game that no one had beaten Army. They’d beaten themselves instead. Alas, East Carolina beat Army. Final score: ECU 28, Army […]
Coming off an inspiring comeback that led to a disappointing overtime home loss this past Saturday, your Army Black Knights travel to Greensville, North Carolina, tonight to take on the East Carolina Pirates. ECU features a good rushing defense anchored by an outstanding defensive line. They also have a dynamic passing attack led by a […]
For the second year in a row, Army will go on a short-week road trip to play an American Conference opponent. This year, the Black Knights will travel a bit further than Philadelphia, though. They’ll go all the way to Greenville, North Carolina, to take on the East Carolina Pirates. This game marks the fifth […]
The American Conference continued its banner year by putting up a pair of Power Four victories. With that, the conference continues to stand out above the rest of the Group of Five. On top of that, the league showed its depth this year when an early-season surprise made a weeknight statement. Each week, we wonder […]
Well friends, I don’t know if that was a frustrating loss or a miraculous comeback that just fell a half-play short, but your Army Black Knights lost their second home game in a row yesterday. Speaking personally, I enjoyed the game tremendously. However, that result might come back to haunt this team. They did a […]
What a crazy couple of weeks, am I right? We thought the Black Knights might be on 2-10 Watch after dropping their home opener in ignominious fashion to FCS Tarleton State, only to then watch them come back and beat mighty Kansas State at their place two weeks ago. Just one week after almost nothing […]
The American Conference takes the spotlight this week. The league plays a pair of weeknight games and *five* games against Power Four opponents. The conference will look to build on a week that saw a Power Four wins plus a win over the Pac-2. Moreover, this week marks one of the last opportunities for many […]
Nothing like a power conference win to turn the season around quickly! Army’s win over Kansas State represents Jeff Monken’s first victory over a Big 12 team. After Duke and Wake Forest in the ACC, Missouri and Florida in the SEC, and a multitude of schools in the American, C-USA, Sun Belt, MAC, and Mountain […]
While the supposed game of the week proved to be a letdown, we still had plenty to celebrate as American Conference fans. One team beat a Power Four team; another made a statement against the PAC-2. Perhaps more importantly, some offenses began to find their rhythms just in time for conference play. Weeks like this […]
