Another wonderful aspect of conference membership: beautiful fall day at west point in september, 83 and sunny. Great day for a west point parade and football game

You do realize we had away games and bye weeks when we were independent also, right?

A bye in september the best month to watch army football?

wpgrad, I did the research for you...interestingly enough, just in the Monken era from 2014 to present, Army had bye-weeks in the following Septembers:

2019 (28 Sep)
2022 (24 Sep)
2023 (30 Sep)

This year the bye-week is about 2 weeks earlier, but certainly not unprecedented for Army to have a bye-week in September, whether independent or in a conference.

Well those bye weeks were unintentional, accidental and anomalies. This bye week is the direct result of joining the AAC. Ergo, joining the AAC was stupid

Last year we had horrible weather 2 home Saturday’s in a row in October. Was that the fault of being an independent?

No, we had already agreed to join the AAC so it’s the fault of being in a conference. Just like wasting a beautiful fall day at West Point yesterday

My knee has been acting up again...blasted AAC!

To be fair the AAC is pretty lame. It will be even lamer when Tulane, Memphis and USF leave.

Is that an announcement or wishful predictable thinking ??
