Comments

Air Force is clearly the best Service Academy team in 2022. This will be a hard battle because both teams are familiar with each other’s offenses, but I think the Falcons will prevail.

AcademyWars.com Prediction

Air Force 35, Army 27

Saturday’s game kicks off at 11:30 ET. You can watch this college football game on the CBS Network.
