Army Black Knights vs. Air Force Falcons Prediction
I’m on the Falcons in this one. I just think that between these two teams, while Air Force’s defense can be problematic, the offense is electric and we’ve seen Army struggle to slow down a lot of solid offensive units this season. The Falcons always take these service academy games extra seriously, and I think they get it done here with the win and cover. Give me Air Force.
