Army finally has it going. I kinda like it. Shhh.

We didn't play Kent State last year.

We had a lot of close losses. 7 defeats by 6 points or less including Penn State and Navy. This year so far the team is finishing and feeling confident in their abilities. Also, we were one of the youngest squads in the FBS.

Congratulations to WMU for the two Big 10 wins. Keep up the great work.

Good to see Army succeeding after so many years. I can't remember the last time they were good. I still haven't made my way up to West Point for a game, hopefully next time we play up there I get a chance to go.

Michie Stadium is a gem. A must see.

Miami has a home-and-home with you guys starting in a few years, a trip to West Point is something I'm really hoping to do.

2020-2021 is the series.

Hopefully, you can make the trip.

Do it! It's a unique atmosphere and really enjoyable. I usually go up there once every couple of years and look forward to it every time.

The best stadium and atmosphere in Army bar none.

Strangely enough, the pre-season polls of both football and basketball, have remarkable consistency in terms of predicting the final polls. So as arbitrary as they are, they tend to be fairly accurate.

How 'bout Albany going 3-0. I think that is their best start in football? They usually are losers.

Stony Brook laid a smack down on Richmond as well. Richmond beat Virginia this year.
