Beat Navy week is officially over and it ended in the best possible way: Army victory! The streak is firmly established with 3 straight years of the Cadets besting the Middies. Plus, the CIC is undisputedly ours for the second year in a row. Now we get to look forward to over a year of […]
What a game! That was a tough win, but the Army Team had a great night, beating Navy with some authority. They weren’t perfect by any means, but a win is a win, and any time you can beat Navy, it’s a Hell of an accomplishment. It is not easy to win in college football, […]
After a long, successful season of college football, it’s time for Army fans to turn their attention to the only game that truly matters, the Army-Navy Game. This will be the 119th iteration of sports’ greatest rivalry. On its face, Army looks to have the superior team. However, the Army-Navy Game is always closer than […]
If you’ve read this column the past few weeks, you may already have guessed this week’s Triple-Option Offense Play of the Week. Yes, that’s right. It’s SB John Trainor’s 8-yard run off a left-handed pitch late in the 4th quarter last year, setting up the go-ahead score. Recall the situation. Army scored on the opening […]
Since Army’s on a bye again this week, let’s talk a little about potential bowl match-ups. We all were (especially Rob) dreaming of a New Year’s Six Bowl. That would have been awesome, of course, but for the moment, it’s super unlikely. If UCF doesn’t make it in, the committee will take the Mountain West Champion, […]
It was brought to our attention by several people that CBS’s Bowl Projection by Jerry Palm excluded the Black Knights. Needless to say, fans were upset, confused, and concerned. To make matters worse, Jerry is facetiously responding on Twitter. Look, Jerry is doing the great work. Fans across the country rely on sports writers to […]

If you have been, you are getting a lot more content than those that only read our articles or engage with us on social media. If […]
If you listen to the podcast this week, you’ll hear us talking about the Option Offense Plays of the Week. We typically do two: My favorite play from the Army game. A different option offense look from somewhere else in college football. Deciding on a favorite play from the Army game was tough this […]
Hmmm…I remember a really sharp Old Grad on a popular podcast that said we were going to smoke Colgate. Oh yeah, that was me. Smoke is relative, but we beat them handily. I was getting so sick and tired of everyone worrying about the tooth paste team. Colgate “left the gate open” as the Black […]
Ah, it feels good to get a win at Michie Stadium. The Black Knights hit the field yesterday in fine form, winning convincingly against one of the best teams in FCS college football. This win won’t earn Army the recognition that they maybe deserve, but if you’ve watched the games, then you already know that […]
