Army Black Knights at Tulsa Golden Hurricane Preview

The Army Black Knights, riding high on a perfect 4-0 start to their season, are set to clash with the Tulsa Golden Hurricane, who have had a rocky 2-3 start. This matchup, taking place at Chapman Stadium, promises to be a compelling contest between two American Athletic Conference foes. Army's recent triumph over the Temple Owls, a commanding 42-14 victory, showcased their formidable ground game. Bryson Daily, despite a modest passing performance, was a force on the ground, amassing 152 rushing yards and three touchdowns. His dual-threat capability, complemented by Kanye Udoh's impressive 128 rushing yards and a touchdown, underscores Army's offensive prowess.

On the other side, Tulsa is looking to rebound from a tough 52-20 loss to North Texas. Quarterback Kirk Francis struggled, completing just 13 of 29 passes for 101 yards and throwing two interceptions. The Golden Hurricane's offense will need to find its rhythm against a disciplined Army defense. Bill Jackson's 77 rushing yards and Kamdyn Benjamin's 68 receiving yards were among the few bright spots in their last outing.

With Army's ground attack firing on all cylinders and Tulsa's recent defensive struggles, the Black Knights are poised to capitalize on their momentum. The odds reflect this, with Army favored by a significant margin. As the game unfolds, the key will be whether Tulsa can tighten their defense and find a way to contain Army's relentless rushing assault.

Army Black Knights at Tulsa Golden Hurricane Pick: Army Black Knights Against the Spread

In this matchup, the Army Black Knights are poised to cover the spread against the Tulsa Golden Hurricane. Army's dominant 4-0 start to the season is a testament to their formidable ground game, which was on full display in their recent 42-14 victory over the Temple Owls. Bryson Daily's performance, with 152 rushing yards and three touchdowns, highlights his dual-threat capability that has been a nightmare for opposing defenses. Complementing Daily's efforts, Kanye Udoh's 128 rushing yards and a touchdown further underscore Army's offensive prowess.

On the other hand, Tulsa's recent struggles, particularly in their 52-20 loss to North Texas, reveal vulnerabilities that Army is well-equipped to exploit. Quarterback Kirk Francis' difficulties, completing only 13 of 29 passes for 101 yards and throwing two interceptions, indicate a lack of offensive rhythm that could be detrimental against a disciplined Army defense. While Bill Jackson and Kamdyn Benjamin showed flashes of potential with 77 rushing yards and 68 receiving yards respectively, these efforts were not enough to overcome their defensive shortcomings.

With Army's ground attack firing on all cylinders and Tulsa's defense struggling to find its footing, the Black Knights are well-positioned to capitalize on their momentum. The odds, favoring Army by a significant margin, reflect the expectation that they will not only win but do so convincingly. As such, betting on Army to cover the spread appears to be a sound choice, given their current form and Tulsa's recent challenges.
