I know I’ve said it before, but I feel obligated to say it again. It feels very symbolic and borderline poetic that Army is pushing to play football at all costs.
Of course they are! In America’s hour of need, Navy and Army are fully committed to bringing fans football in the fall.
As a proud American, it makes me damn proud to know both service academies aren’t hiding in the basement like the Big 10 and PAC-12.

The USA needs football, and we need it to happen in the fall. Army is doing everything in their power to provide fans with a full 12-game schedule.
The critics told us that we couldn’t play football during the coronavirus pandemic. Army just went to work.
If that doesn’t sum it up nicely, then I don’t know what will.

Cincy is a fine opponent, and I’m looking forward to this game. It’s time for football to return in the USA, and I give major props to every single team helping to make that happen.
