We knew Army was going to score a lot of points, we just didn’t know how much.
In our preview, we pointed out Army’s 1800+ rushing yards on the season, and how this alone would more than likely be enough to shut down a struggling Rice team on Saturday.
The Black Knights rolled up another 418 against Rice, not only doubling Rice’s rushing total, but outrunning their entire offense, 418-346. Army’s passing game, as always, was non-existent, but does it matter when you barrel down the field like that? Kelvin Hopkins Jr. finished 1/1 with nine yards passing, Ahmad Bradshaw was 0/2 with an INT.
