These teams weren’t supposed to be here.
As we said in our preview, not only were expectations not that high for either team coming into the season, but they already played each other back on October 22nd. The result? North Texas victory in regulation, 35-18.
Army apparently learned from their mistakes, and matched that 18 points by early in the 2nd quarter of their post-season rematch with the Mean Green. The Black Knights kept going, finishing the first half at 24 points, with a feisty Mean Green team nipping at their heels.
This was not without missteps.
