Challenges for Army
When you look at the Army-Navy statistical comparison, most of the stats are similar. However, two glaring disparities for Army are third down conversion defense and red zone defense. Army absolutely has to improve on those two in order to win this game.
Saturday’s game kicks off at 3:30 ET. Watch on the CBS Network.
