It’s going to be extremely tough for the nation’s worst statistical pass defense to let up over 400 yards through the air against Army.
Why, you ask? Well, the Black Knights have only attempted 10 passes and completed two of those through their first two games — both of which they were victorious. Let that sink in. Their starting quarterback, Ahmad Bradshaw, is 2-for-10 passing for 17 yards through two games.
But on the other hand, Army ranks second in the nation in rushing offense, at a whopping 417.5 yards per game. The reason why Army’s stats are so skewed in one direction is because they run the triple-option offense, also known as the flexbone.
