The Army Black Knights visit the Alamodome in San Antonio, Texas on Saturday to play the UTSA Roadrunners. Army improved to 4-1 following its 14-9 victory over The Citadel on Saturday. In an abnormally low scoring game for Army, quarterback Jamal Jones rushed for 49 yards and one touchdown and passed for 75 yards and one touchdown, but was intercepted twice by the Bulldogs defense. Army turned the ball over twice and gained just 228 total yards of offense.

Jamill Jones has passed for 156 yards, one touchdown and has been intercepted twice. The leading rusher for Army is Tyrell Robinson with 264 yards and Jones has 237 yards and three touchdowns. The leading receiver for Army is Michael Roberts with 94 yards and one touchdown reception. On defense, linebacker John Rhattigan has a team-high 37 tackles.

UTSA dropped to 3-2 following its 27-20 loss to the BYU Cougars on Saturday. The Roadrunners have now lost two straight after opening the season with three consecutive victories. In the loss on Saturday, UTSA quarterback Lowell Narcisse passed for 229 yards and two touchdowns while wide receiver Zakhari Franklin had 79 yards receiving and one touchdown reception. However, following a touchdown to cut BYU's lead to just seven points with a minute to play, UTSA could not recover the ensuing onside kick.

The leading receiver is Joshua Cephus with 205 yards and three touchdown receptions, while Zakhari Franklin has 202 yards receiving and two touchdown receptions. On defense, safety Rashad Wisdom is the leading tackler with 40.

Army has had problems scoring touchdowns of late with just two against the lesser-talented Citadel. Therefore expect a low-scoring battle between the Black Knights and the Roadrunners on Saturday. The play here is the UNDER. The UNDER has cashed in five of Army’s last six and in six of the Black Knights last seven played on Saturday. The total has also finished UNDER in nine of UTSA last 11 played during October. Final Score Prediction, Army Black Knights win but our best play is UNDER 23-7.
