Always the key to Army. Get the lead early. It's a psych game with them. The whole thing is time of possession. You go 3 and out on first possession, they burn 10 minutes and don't care if they score. You get a field goal next possession. They burn another 10 minutes. Halftime you lead 3 zip and nobody on your team is tired cuz they didn't play much. Panic. Lose.
1st down is a key as well. If you can hold to a gain 2 or less on some 1st downs, your odds of getting a stop go way up. I mean obviously that is case with any team, but even more so with an option team.
