After last week, I don’t think any of us knew quite what to expect from this Army Team. Sure, the offense looked good against an FCS opponent that won two games last year, and the defense played great in the Red Zone, giving up just 7 points. In a vacuum, that looks great. But how […]
Friends, we’ve got a big game this weekend! Army travels to sunny Boca Raton, Florida, to take on the Florida Atlantic Owls in what will be the Black Knights’ first-ever contest as a member of the American Athletic Conference. This game matters a lot! We all got pretty darned excited watching the Black Knights run […]
College football has hit its stride, and with that, the American Athletic Conference has a BIG week of non-conference games. Tulane Looks For Deja Vu Against Kansas State, 12 PM ET (ESPN) Two years ago, Tulane shocked the country with one of the American’s greatest non-conference victories to date. The Green Wave traveled to Manhattan, […]
Army Football is back and off to a great start in 2024. We could maybe nitpick a few things from the team’s commanding win over Lehigh, but we must also acknowledge that the Black Knights looked the best by far of any of the service academies. Indeed, looking around the rest of the FBS — […]
Week One of the American Athletic season is in the books. Despite several seemingly non-consequential games littering the slate, a few notable storylines raised both eyebrows and questions for the coming weeks. Among the noteworthy news events were a non-conference upset and a near-upset against a Power Five foe. These games create intriguing storylines for […]
The Army Black Knights opened their season with a commanding win over Patriot League foe Lehigh last night, and though the team definitely came away with a few things they’ll want to clean up, overall, they made their game plan work almost to perfection. The Black Knights rushed for 375 yards on 6.7 yards/carry, held […]
Well friends, football is back. It’s been 265 days since Army beat the hell out of Navy to close the 2023 season and send us into a long, cold winter. Army opens this week as a heavy favorite against Lehigh, and this is indeed a game that the team should win. That being said, there […]
The AAC season kicks off this week. This includes Army, who plays Lehigh to begin its first season in the American Athletic Conference. Continuing our routine from last year, when Army officially joined America’s conference, As For Football looks around the AAC and previews the league’s Week One slate. Tune-Up Games Galore — Alcorn State […]
Army Football last played under the Michie Stadium lights on August 30th, 2019. That game saw Army win 14-7 against the Rice Owls. The Black Knights led two classic 9+ minute, 90+ yard, 16+ play drives in that game. However, that was pretty much it for the offense that day. Army got the “W” — […]
Welcome back to Games & Locks of the Week, my friends. We’ve got a short slate this weekend, but it’s still football, and it still counts, so I guess we’ll take it. Note that we’ve left the FCS games in this week’s schedule. That won’t be the norm going forward. However, it makes sense this […]
