Last year I was worried about losing to Buffalo; this year the feeling was the same - right up until it wasn't.
Army is just a road grader on offense. There are just so many threats to close down. Play action, unbalanced, midline option, shotgun and plus a fullback crew that rotates in fresh from the bench. The O-line gets warmed up and it is pretty much: 6 yards, 6 yards, 2 yards, 10 yards, 4 yards 3 yards and top that off with third down passing executed as prescribed. The staples of the Army offense are vexing and potent- but opposing coaches can further ponder Army's deepening playbook and misdirection schemes.
