WEST POINT, N.Y. (AP) Kyle Flood of Rutgers and Army's Jeff Monken are dealing with the same problem: their teams are headed in the wrong direction.
At least one will reverse field on Saturday when the Black Knights (2-8) host the Scarlet Knights (3-7) at Michie Stadium. Both teams still have something to play for despite their records.
Army, of course, has the season finale next month against Navy, one last chance to salvage a positive from another tough year. And despite the certainty of a sub-.500 season, Flood's squad still has a glimmer of hope to play in a bowl game.
