CFN's Early Prediction SMU 31-10
Posted: Wed Dec 08, 2010 9:39 am29. Bell Helicopters Armed Forces Bowl
December 30, 2010 Fort Worth, TX 12:00 pm ESPN
SMU vs. Army
Three Reasons To Watch This Bowl: 1) 1996. That was the last time Army was in a bowl game and it's going to always bring the A effort. 2) There should be a buzz. Between the Army factor and the home crowd for SMU, this won't be an empty bowl. 3) Both teams can play a little offense. It'll be an interesting contrast in styles with the SMU passing game vs. the Army ground attack.
And Why You Should Spend Your Time Roasting Your Chestnuts: The SMU run defense isn't bad, and Army can't throw a lick. If SMU plays like it did in a blowout Hawaii Bowl performance over Nevada last year, this could be a big bowl of yuck.
Three Names To Drop That'll Make The Perky Girl In Accounting Want To Take You Into The Storeroom During The Holiday Party For Smooches: 1) RB Zach Line, SMU, 2) FB Jared Hassin, Army, 3) QB Kyle Padron, SMU
Gut-Reaction Pick That Might Change In The Next Few Days On A Whim: SMU 31 ... Army 10
