1. Army at Troy
POINT TOTAL 45.5
PICK Under
I can’t promise the same LOCK OF THE CENTURY for last week PICK OF A GENERATION status like the under on Air Force-Army – you were good after the first drive on that.
This, though, might not be too far off for one key reason.
The Troy defense has been solid.
It might bend, but it doesn’t break all that often and it’s amazing against the run. Ole Miss ran for 266 yards on it – and the final score was 28-10.
Louisiana ran for 208 yards on the Trojans – and the final score was 23-17.
The Appalachian State game got to 61, but that was with a late Hail Mary in a relative shootout for Troy. Since Week 3 only the 34-27 game against WKU – it threw for 406 yards – got past 46.
Troy’s defensive issues are against teams that throw, and obviously that’s not Army.
Army will control the clock. Troy will control the clock.
Army will run. Troy can stop the run.
Troy can’t run. Army can’t stop the run. We’re okay here.
Yes, almost all the Army games got to the 46 point total, but both offenses will be likeminded. and there’s a chance one D holds the other O to next to nothing.
Again, this won’t stall like the Army-Air Force game, but it might.
