Challenges for Army

The challenges for Army are enormous. Playing before 100,000 opposing fans is one them. You’ve got a very mobile, season veteran quarterback in Shea Patterson. Seven different Michigan players have scored receiving touchdowns during their careers. Army’s has got to keep Patterson contained. Army’s offense will be facing an athletic, talented Wolverine defense but if Middle Tennessee can score 21 points on Michigan, Army should be able to score 31 points.

Saturday’s game kicks off at Noon ET. Watch on the FOX Network.
