The Black Knights continues to find ways to win close games in conference play. From the team's first forced turnover, a pick by Caleb Williams, to a huge stop on defense that gave the offense a chance to win the game, this was a massive win. This is the type of game you can build on, as the defense has continued to improve, and the offense comes up clutch once again!

Conference play is back in the American, as Army and Tulane face off tomorrow. This is a Tulane team who has been consistently inconsistent. This should play well into what Army wants to do offensively, as I expect another big day on the ground. For the defense, I am looking for Army to avoid any big plays, because this is a Tulane team that has shown flashes in past games!

Army losses to an LA Tech team that broke off a few big plays due to some tackling issues. LA Tech was able to attack this defense and while Army got some stops, the offense also at points struggled, especially with penalties that put the team behind the sticks. This is a game that Army can learn from and there are still areas that can be improved upon!

Army travels down to Louisiana Tech, after holding off Temple with a huge stop on the last drive. This is a Louisiana Tech team that has faced P5 opponents, but was blown out by LSU and coming off a loss to Baylor. Tackling is something I will still be keeping an eye on for Army, while also seeing a complete game from the offense as well!

In this episode, Will and I talked about how he found his way to MSU and if there are any similarities between MSU and NTDP. We also talked about the facilities at MSU, and why it is important to not only give great effort, but also understand the workout. Lastly, we talked about former Spartans returning ever summer, what characteristics high level hockey players demonstrate, and what fans should expect this season.
