10* Bowl Burial
(NCAAF) Army vs. North Texas, 12/27/2016 7:00 AM, Score: 38 - 31
Point Spread: -10.50 | -115.00 Army (Away)
Result: Loss
I think we have a very solid play here in the Bowls as the these 2 teams already played this season and the game/score was very misleading. North Texas has lost all of their games by 14 or more points this season and are lucky to be in a bowl game with a 5-7 record. Army already lost to N Texas this season. It was their sloppiest game in recent years. They had 7 turnovers which included 4 interceptions. That's tough to do for a team that doesn't throw the ball. Army also committed 9 penalties in this game and I don't see that happening again. This Army team has a little time to prepare and will have revenge on their mind. North Texas is terrible vs. the run allowing well over 5 yards per carry. They allowed 9.60 yards per carry in their last game alone. Army ran for 302 yards in the last meeting, but the turnovers killed drives. Army's defense is much better and I see them dominating this game even if it's in Texas I think they will actually have a slight advantage in the stands. Texas a big military state and they typically have a ton of Army fans at games when Army comes to town. North Texas will get to lineup against the nation's 4th best defense that has allowed just 288 yards per game and hope to outscore their opponent because we know that Army is going to move the football. Again the matchup is just disastrous for North Texas and I think the result will show here on Tuesday afternoon and Army gets a BIG WIN!
