112 in SP+ defense and allowed 353 yards on the ground the last time it played a triple-option team. 62 in the country and 21 spots ahead of the Rainbow Warriors.Īs far as X’s and O’s go, Army should have its way offensively. SP+ still provides a reason for optimism, slotting Army No. The Black Knights have been the unluckiest team in the country, with a 7.9 expected win total entering Week 13.
But if we take a deeper dive, it makes sense. With a -3 line and adjusting for home field, you’re probably wondering why the spread is implying these two teams are essentially even, despite Army being at 5-6 and Hawaii at 8-4. It only feels right to close out the season with fading Hawaii, as we’ve done twice successfully over the last few weeks.
