Challenges for Army

Army has looked really good at times this season while Air Force has had its ups and downs. Everything goes out the window when the service academies meet on the football field. Why? Because they are all experts at defending each other’s offenses. Army needs to approach this game like any other. Putting too much emphasis on it leads to the possibility of players choking under pressure. It’s just another football game. Execute your schemes and give it all you have.

Saturday’s game kicks off at 11:30 AM ET (9:30 MT). Watch on the CBS network.
