The key to Army's offensive success is its aversion to committing turnovers. It's also something our defense is bad at forcing. In 7 games, Army has turned the ball over a grand total of 1 time. If we can win the turnover battle, I think we'll win. Had we won the turnover battle against Memphis, we'd probably have won. Not exactly a controversial idea but we need to win that battle against good teams.
We've made the G5 rankings which are worthless. We're trying to take it a step up, right? That will require a more robust NIL. If you think otherwise, I can't help you.
I was going to make a smart a** reply but then I looked at the numbers.....
in rushing defense:
We're tied for #87 (w/UNC) out of 132
Army's opponents:
FAU: # 120
Rice: #82
Temple: #123
Tulsa: #76
UAB: #132
ECU: #98
Now, I'm too lazy to factor in Army's games against them and the affect they obviously had on their rushing defense stats...
But if Army rushes for 400 yards against us (they're averaging 359)....that would raise our average from 160 per game to 190 per game...ranking wise: down to around 112.
So kind of in the middle of that pack.
....so......now I'm not really sure what all that means.
That game's gonna be hard.
