There has been much talk about the dramatic turnaround Army West Point football has made over the past three seasons.
The Black Knights boast a 27-10 record since the start of 2017, an impressive accomplishment for a program that endured losing records in 18 of 19 seasons prior.
Beating archrival Navy on Saturday would give Army back-to-back 10-win seasons. The Black Knights managed just four wins or fewer every year except two between 1997 and 2015.
Head coach Jeff Monken believes the turnaround actually began in 2015 when Army went 2-10. The Black Knights lost eight games by a touchdown or less that season by playing a much better brand of football than Monken saw in 2014.
