I'm wondering who will set their career best this game against our defense

They have a really good running, and the QB runs really well.  Just my observance watching Army's game today.

And wasn't today's game with their backup quarterback?

We need to stack the box and play man coverage on the back end. I got it that they can throw better than in the past, but they are still primarily a running team and our DBs should be able to hold up in man coverage against their receivers. Should being the key word.

They will trail in a game for the first time this season.

I just need our players and coaching staff to feel this way.

A similar type score to the Navy game from 2008.

You have to Stack the box! Under no circumstances can you be dependent on out DB supporting the run defense. Put 2 over the center alternate one attempts to penetrate and ones just holds and reacts. Stop the dive play. We hold them to 35-40 we win.

We don't have to outscore Army.....we have to outscore our Defense!

If Army ever goes three and out and we don’t immediately score, then we will lose.  Those are the only possessions that will matter.

With a Bye week and Notre Dame after us, this is a prime "trap game" for Army.

8-0

Army has a bye week between North Texas and Notre Dame

NOTE: I wasn't talking to myself with these three posts that seem to be consecutive. Someone deleted posts...

1) had a bye week before Air Force, so it's not like they're exhausted 

2) free time? cadets who play an in-season varsity sport?

Appreciate BeatNavy. Good fan.

Message me if you are coming to the game and I will share a dram of peaty Scotch with you. There will be at least one other West Point grad at our tailgate, my BIL. Two others in the family may not be able to attend (one of the slackers just welcomed his first son to the planet). If not, I hope to see you at West Point next year.

We have a late game drive hoping to score so we have a chance to try an onside kick in order to setup an opportunity for a touchdown and two-point conversion to force OT.  I mean, what else can we ask for, right, right?

My fear is even if we load the box we can't tackle. If they go with the backup QB, we may have a shot. 

This is what’s been happening.  It’s very frustrating.  Running through the ball carrier and/or wrapping up the ball carrier seem basic, but have not been happening.  We also have times where the players seem to shy away from the ball carrier.  Got fix it.

      Yes, as NT fans we have seen several years of this style play. But for other teams, and their fans, they don't really understand what is happening. Their team struggles and the game becomes difficult for them to score. They blame their own players and coaches, usually with no credit to us.

      Army Game TV Ratings (number of viewers)

      Better, but not great. Rice/Memphis got 407K on a Friday night, so maybe...oh no, now we're up against the Tyson/Paul fight. We can never catch a break, hahahaha, but at least we have our ready-made excuse.

      Minnesota (11/13/24)

      The raised floor at Williams Arena, also known as "the Barn" in Minneapolis, Minnesota, was designed to improve sightlines for fans and create a buffer zone between the court and the fans: Better view: The raised floor allows fans to see more of the action on the court. Buffer zone: The raised floor creates a separation between the fans and the court. Historic feature: The raised floor is one of the few remaining in the United States and contributes to the arena's historic feel. Unique feature: The raised floor makes Williams Arena different from other arenas and memorable for visitors. The raised floor is about two feet above the ground, which means that the first row of seats are below the court and fans are roughly at the players' knee level. Only head coaches are allowed on the court during play, except for officials and players who are actively playing. Williams Arena is one of the oldest basketball arenas in the country, having opened in 1928. The arena is home to the Minnesota Golden Gophers men's basketball team, which competes in the Big Ten Conference. It used to also house indoor football practice, tennis, indoor track, and hockey. The building was remodeled in 1950. Renamed in honor of Dr. Henry L. Williams, U of M football coach from 1900 to 1921, it was divided into a hockey arena on one end and a basketball arena with a seating capacity of 18,025 on the other. From 1950 until 1971, it had the largest capacity of any collegiate basketball arena in the country.

      A real quick check via google can tell you that NT's defense is top 5 in the nation. https://www.ncaa.com/stats/basketball-men/d1/current/team/146 While on google, one could also see that NT's pace-of-play is bottom 10 in the nation. https://www.teamrankings.com/ncaa-basketball/stat/possessions-per-game ERGO... Teams are going to score much less than they normally do against us, and it's going to frustrate the heck out of their fans if they don't know anything about us except that we're "a good mid-major".

      ***OFFICIAL UNT vs. UTSA IN-GAME DISCUSSION***

      Even though I think we should win this game by two touchdowns, This games got me nervous. Hope our offense will be coming out pissed off from getting shut down offensively last week and lay it on em.
