This game has been anxiety-inducing since it was put on our schedule. The offense is always tough to manage and we are coming into this one with considerably less wind in our sails than we expected.

We did good job with Georgia Southern in Cure Bowl against triple option. Granted , Army runs it better than Georgia Southern and is a better team.

Why does there seem to be very little interest in this game ?

Everybody is on Thanksgiving Break, and many of us are still experiencing the after effects of what Purple calls a "food coma."

Yep, not to mention the damper the last game put on things too. I think most if us are feeling reserved going into this game. I feel like we’re going to see a better showing by the flames this week though. Not sure why but I just feel like we’re going to finish strong.

That may very well be true, but it isn't showing up on message board. Heck, it's less than 24 hours to kickoff and no one has posted the prediction thread.

Well there was kind of a big holiday yesterday. People generally put family first over a message board

I'm away until tomorrow afternoon and have spotty internet. You are more than capable of starting a prediction thread.

Family comes first.

Will be there. Fairly optimistic but shocked to see we are giving points.

Anyone double-dipping on the games today?

What’s your between-games strategy?

Yes. Take your time. Walk the campus. Enjoy concessions.

After years of being away I’m back in the stadium. So excited to be back.

I like being aggressive but how is going for it on 4th and 9 from the 50 a good idea?

Why does our band play after every Army first down

Why was our band playing during the intro video?

Because our band thinks, and has always thought, that people bought a ticket to see them.

Update: my wife is the joy one who comes for the band. And she stayed home today with the kids.

Hugh Freeze has lost his mind. He is making terrible decisions today.

We are terrible.

What happened to Willis? Can’t believe he is a first rounder at this point.

What happened to giving your defense solid field position to work with? Also we need a new o line coach. It's been mostly poor communication for most of the season. They are just letting guys walk into the backfield.
