Whether you’re a die-hard fan of Army, Navy, and Air Force, or just getting into the spirit of Service Academy sports, this episode of Yards And Stripes has something for everyone.
Falcons Suffer A Clunker In Waco
First up, we dive into the Air Force Falcons’ challenging game against Baylor. Despite a strong start, Air Force struggled in the second half, ultimately falling 31-3. Price Atkinson and Steve Carney break down what went wrong for the Falcons and what they need to focus on during their upcoming bye week. With a tough loss behind them, Troy Calhoun and company are looking to regroup and come back stronger as they prepare for Mountain West Conference play.
Army And Navy Return To Action With Exciting Matchups
Next, we shift our attention to the Army Black Knights, who are set to host Rice following their bye week. Army is riding high with a six-game winning streak, the second-longest active streak in the country. Price and Steve discuss the key players to watch and what Army needs to do to secure another victory. With Rice struggling this season, Army has a great opportunity to extend their winning streak and build momentum for the rest of the season. We then roll into Navy’s upcoming game against the Memphis Tigers. The Midshipmen are looking to start the season 3-0 for the first time since 2017, but they’ll face a tough challenge against a high-powered Memphis offense led by fourth-year starter Seth Hennigan. The guys give their expert analysis and offer their predictions on whether Navy can pull off the upset and end Memphis’s five-game winning streak of their own.
In addition to game previews and recaps, we honor another fallen service member with the Travis Manion Foundation Honor Roll. And as always, Price and Steve wrap up the episode with their game predictions and a look ahead at what to expect in the coming weeks.
