Army Black Knights vs Stanford Cardinal Point Spread Picks

You could probably feel the disappointment with the Stanford players after their devastating 3-point loss to USC last week. How many points do you think a team would score in a game if every drive they had got at least to the opponents 23 yard line? Only one Stanford drive fell short of the 23, and that push got to the 32. That was Stanford last week and the answer was a mere 10 points. I'm not sure if that ever happened before, but that loss hides the fact that this team is still pretty good. i think that they will take out a lot of those frustrations on Army this week, especially when you add to the pot the fact that they threw up a stinker against the Black Knights last year in winning just 34-20. You know that they have been reminded of that all week, and maybe even all offseason. Army gained 284 yards on the ground against one of the best rushing defenses in the country, so I don't think they get half of that this year. Army is just 3-13 ATS when following a win, and Stanford comes in at 33-15-1 ATS in their last 49. The Cardinal adds one more to the win column, so lay the points on Stanford.
