Las Vegas - Army and Navy both live in the American Athletic Conference and have played a bunch of the same teams during the season. But the results favor the Army. Both beat Temple, with Army posting a 42-14 win and Navy winning 38-11. Both crushed UAB with Army winning 44-10 and Navy 41-18. Both were blown away by Notre Dame, with Army losing 49-14 and Navy on the short end of a 51-14 score. Now it gets interesting. Army beat Rice 37-14 but Navy lost 24-10. And the most shocking comparative score came against Tulane. Army rolled over the Green Wave in the AAC Championship game 35-14, while Navy not only lost, the Midshipmen ate a 35-0 BAGEL at HOME against Tulane. OUCH! Love the Black Knights QB Bryson Daily who has gobbled up 1,480 yards on the ground which has helped Army lead the nation in rushing (314.4 yards per game). Dailey also has 29 TDs which is tied with Heisman Trophy finalist Ashton Jeanty from Boise State. My Dad was Army and we ALWAYS root for the Long Gray Line. We don't always bet the Army but will throw a few chips at the Black Knights today.
