We’ve finally reached the end of the regular season for #AmericasConference. Even as the race to the Conference Championship Game narrowed to three teams, multiple additional teams fought for bowl eligibility and for positioning for more attractive bowl opportunities. Per usual, it made for an enthralling week in the conference. Without further ado, let’s go […]
Army has done what Wile E. Coyote never could for a fourth consecutive time. They’ve gotten the best of the Roadrunners on their own turf. This win represents the second straight time that the Black Knights entered the Alamodome as multiple-score underdogs and have come out victorious. ON BRAVE OLD ARMY TEAM! Going on the […]
Well friends, it all comes down to this. After dropping a winnable game at home on Senior Day to an otherwise forgettable Tulsa team, your Army Black Knights now have exactly one last chance to earn their sixth win in time to qualify for a bowl game. To do so, they’ll have to win on […]
The American Conference Championship picture became clearer than ever in Week 13. Two of the league’s frontrunners distanced themselves from the pack, while another lost a must-win game. Offensive explosions filled the conference landscape alongside these important contests, creating another eventful week in the conference. Without further ado, let’s go Around the American. Tulane and […]
On a day in which my class, the West Point Class of 1995, gave a record $2.5M to the U.S. Military Academy’s Margin of Excellence programs as part of our 30th Reunion celebration, we as a class learned once again that sheer money can buy neither happiness nor success. At the end of the day, […]
Your Army Black Knights host the Tulsa Golden Hurricane tomorrow afternoon with a chance to get bowl-eligible on the line on senior day. This is a big game; we will absolutely need to see this Army Team play its best football this weekend. The team has improved steadily all season, but they have yet to […]
Though Tulsa comes into this week’s game fresh off a win over Oregon State, the Golden Hurricane represent the best remaining chance Army has at bowl eligibility. The Black Knights will be coming off a bye week, but we shouldn’t be surprised if some of that extra time got spent on December prep instead of […]
On its face, the American’s Week 13 slate doesn’t look as compelling as some previous weeks have looked. To be sure, we still have room for a few Earth-shaking results, but these would mostly come via massive upsets. Unfortunately, ESPN has stuck arguably the week’s most compelling match-ups on the Plus. Decisions like this often […]
Twelve weeks in, and the American Conference picture remains as blurry as ever. While some fans of the conference will perhaps lament the self-cannibalism that could ultimately prevent the league from playing in the College Football Playoff, your eternal optimist appreciates the league for its tremendous depth. That depth was on full display this week. […]
This weekend should go a long way towards clearing up our muddled American Conference Championship picture. Though every team in the conference has at least one conference loss, we still have five teams with exactly one such loss. With Navy and South Florida playing this weekend, at least one of those five will fall out […]
