Comments

This game had me concerned with the Roadrunners playing to within a TD of beating BYU. But they also only beat Middle Tennessee by two points. I think it’s going to come down to whether or not UTSA has learned how to stop the option. Last year they didn’t do to well against Army falling 31-13 and giving up 340 yards rushing. This is a different season though and they may have learned something last season. I think Army wins but not by as big of a margin as last season.
