The season’s third quarter picks up in the second half of October with two potentially challenging away games — at Tulsa and at Memphis. By this time in the season, we should have a pretty good sense of who this year’s Army Team is and of who their opponents are as well. With that said, […]
As For Football is pleased to announce that photographer Mike K. Heit will join us this season to help us cover the Army Black Knights this season.

We’ll therefore start with 2026’s first three games — Bryant, South Florida, and at Temple. I should note that FPI tends to […]
The Army Black Knights come into the 2026 campaign with an experienced group on offense and a fair number of questions on defense. If the Black Knights’ offense can figure it out, move the ball successfully, consistently dominate time-of-possession, and close out games, then this team could be in for a special season. But that’s […]
