Army Game Score Prediction Thread

[greeneagle1]

I'm surprised no one has started one yet, so here we go.

UNT 38
Army 28

[Aldo]

81-0

[Venson]

I say 38-35. Defense won't stop Army ground game and they will score 21 in first half and 14 in the second. Mean Green win on last second FG by Trevor Moore.

[MeanGreenTexan]

The Mean Green started the game extremely slow offensively last week, then won the 3rd quarter (as coach Littrell has harped all year) rather handily, and coasted to a big win.

This week, the 8-2 Army Knights come in.  They've been rather dominant on the ground, except when faced with a tough defense like Ohio State and Tulane(?).  They'll move the ball plenty against the Mean Green with all their wacky misdirection.

This game will be critical for the Mean Green to win both the Special Teams battle and the Turnover battle.   Win those two, and the Mean Green win this game going away because there's no way the Army defense is slowing down Fine & Co.

I think the crowd will be huge, and the team will feed off of us to finally put that complete game together on offense, defense & special teams for all 4 quarters.

North Texas: 38
Army: 28

42 - 21 UNT

 

Army will run for over 250 yds, but will have a hard time punching it in.

 

Fine throws for 3 TD's, Nick Smith get's 2 TD  We have 450+ yds total offense

There's a 10-point swing between Vegas lines and Sagarin predictions (We'd be a 7-point dog on the Sagarin ratings). 

So, who shows up on Saturday?  A Dickey team who knows it has the conference division and a bowl game wrapped up, so doesn't care, or a bunch of hungry ne'er-do-wells who want to put a stamp on their legacy with an undefeated home season? 

UNT - 35

Army - 24

A Dickey team is the last team to go undefeated at home.

I think we put it together. The D has been on fire and the O got back on track the 2nd half vs UTEP

I think we do out-athlete them on Saturday 

UNT 42

Army 31

I did my prognosticating independently before coming to this thread. Reading my way down, a bunch of us are generally of like mind.  I feel in my gut that this is going to be a high-scoring game. Wear your jock strap with a cup, this is gonna get physical! Here is my two cents' worth:

North Texas Mean Green Eagles     45

Army West Point Cadets                   38

 

[GreenTexan13]

Mean Green- 36

Black Knights- 34

Ground game vs. Air raid.. I think Air wins this one on Saturday!

[UNT86]

O/U is 58

Spread is 2.5

Ill say

Army 27.75

NT 30.25

Living on the edge a bit here I see. 

I like all the positive vibes on the score predictions in here, but I'm just not as sure. I think their O could apply pressure to our offense by forcing our offense to press and play tight due to knowing we may not get as many possessions as we normally do. We seemingly, game to game, need those extra possessions to work the kinks out to get the offense going. We need to come out and play well offensively in the first quarter. I think if we have a 10 point (or more) 1st quarter we may end up winning comfortably. If not, then it's a crap shoot really. 

Nevertheless, give me...UNT - 33 Army - 28

Mean Green by 90

That's why I think if we win the toss, we don't defer. We need to get the offense going early and often.

I don't see a team that can't throw the ball being able to beat this year's squad. 34-24 UNT

Army will pop a couple long runs for TD's, but Mason Fine, Jeffery Wilson & the Triplets go bonkers (again) before a humongous & VERY loud crowd at fabulous Apogee Stadium.

Quickness, Athleticism & Coaching Rules the Day!

UNT.......42 

ARMY....24

GMG!

Honestly I wouldn't care if the score was 3-0 just as long as the Mean Green win. 

[UNTLifer]

NT by 14+.  Make a statement on both sides of the ball.

[UNTcrazy727]

Black Knights- 24
