Comments

This is a game that before the season most Army followers thought would be an sure victory. We are not so sure anymore. The key in this game will be the 3rd down conversion battle. Army has to do better on third down on both sides of the ball. Army should win but it certainly isn’t a given anymore

AcademyWars.com Prediction

Army 27, Georgia State 24

Saturday’s game kicks off at 6 PM CT. Watch online on the ESPN+ Network.
