I wouldn’t be so sure. Army is notorious giving Power 5 teams all they can handle. It could be a tough game.

The USMA Class of 1966 has received a lot of attention due to its timing with regard to the huge escalation of US involvement in Viet Nam.

Here’s a link to a short read about several of the class members:

Would pay to see this game.

I will be there. I am taking a few West Point Grads I served with in Afghanistan and Iraq.

Man I wish we played at West Point. I’ve got to see a game there before the pearly gates.

If you're planning a random academy game, I highly recommend Army-Navy. It's usually played in Philly, but the tradition and spectacle of that game is bucket list worthy.

It would be cool if LSU did some kind of tribute program to this cover from 1931.

It’s about time LSU has a chance to even up their record against Army. That shutout loss 92 years ago was a bitter defeat.
