Army -3 over North Texas ****
This line has changed a few times due to the availability of Army qb's Bryson Dailey He didn't play in last week Army=Air force game . Army subbed Coleman as it's QB and although he did good as a substitute and had a 3 or 4 scoring drives he is not Bryson Daily. North Texas coach when he was at SMU recruited Bryson as a line backer But he wanted to be a QB and turned them down Many schools recruited him as a line backer. He chose West Point because they told him he could play QB. Dailey is an option QB with fullback mentality . He has some halfback moves and is elusive but he likes to run over people like a full back Monken the Army coach has listed him as questionable or probable on Saturday. So no one really knows if he plays Bryson is on many Heisman candidates lists and Army has Notre Dame next week But Army is not looking ahead of North Texas Army has played a 'cupcake " schedule 8-0 beating ECU, Lehigh,Rice, Temple ,FAU, Temple Air Force..In fact North Texas will be the only team they have faced with a winning record. They are having one of the most successful season ever even though Navy and Notre Dame are games still down the road. No one knows the Bryson status for this Saturday. Monken kept quiet last week that Bryson would not play vs Air Force . Many at North Texas are saying he is playing and its an Army " smoke screen " .. His injury has been reported as a " soft tissue : injury. Undisclosed is the official word Monken yesterday said he is playing and North Texas has to prepare for him . NT has to put 8 men in the box on defense. But this kid can throw accurately and doesn't turn the ball over. But NT has athletic Db's and can slow down the rushing of Dailey I am guessing he is playing and North Texas Defense is in big trouble trying to stop him running the ball or passing it. Army is not looking ahead to Notre Dame or Navy because they will get a nice Bowl invite from somebody. Army knows playing a North Texas team away is very dangerous and although the game is in Denton think Army will get a few helicopters and some Army fans from nearby Army bases to even the crowd somewhat. Bryson takes about 20-25 hits a game as an option QB but I have never seen an option QB take on Linemen LB's or CB's ,lower he head on contact and makes the tackler fall back . If Bryson plays Army wins and covers ****
If Bryson doesn't play will still grab the -4 pts because North Texas Defense is not used to playing a wishbone option offense.
Army -4 over North Texas w/ Bryson *****
w/o Bryson ***
good luck might not know his status until game time Hate going against My North Texas and this is Army's toughest opponent Army on the road and possibly without its star player but think Black Nites win and cover Good luck

Army up 7-3 at half. Monken with ball on the 3 yds line goes for a fake FG with no time on the clock and doesn't get it. Just take the FG and 3 points . But Army gets the ball in 2nd half North Texas Defense is really playing good . Bryson is playing but NT has him covered pretty well . Army D is underrated and has done a good job vs Mean Green offense . Wearing my North Texas shirt and Army hat ..

Bryson scores 2 td's and rushes for 153 yds in a 14-3 win over North Texas . Army is now 9-0 and has the longest winning streak at 13 games They play Notre Dame next week and that might be a tough tough game Not sure of the line but Notre Dame stopped Navy's option last week . Army has played a cup cake schedule and North Texas was their 1st win over a team with a winning record. Army wants to make the College play offs tournament . Army D has played outstanding in their winning streak and they shut down North Texas offense . Looking forward to see what the Notre Dame line will be. Think Army is also 9-0 ats .
