Army at Buffalo

We are in Amherst. New York today to see a match-up between programs under fairly new competent coaching staffs. One is already making significant progress.  The other is s work in process. Army under third-year Head Coach Jeff Moncken is a surprising 3-0.  Their defense is looking solid and their offense is coming around with FB Andy Davidson powering yardage up the middle to give the option a basis to get the yardage around the ends.  Buffalo (0-2) is under HC Lance Leipold in his second season here in Amherst.  Leipold, who led Wisconsin-Whitewater to six national championships at the D3 level, led the Bulls to a 5-7 season a year ago.  Still working on building his roster, he is a year or some from getting things turned around for this MAC program.  Army has the momentum coming in today, but the Bulls will be looking to build with a tough chore ahead of them to stop Army’s running game in their home game tonight. Kickoff is at 7 pm.

Army surprised Temple in this year’s opener as Andy Davidson (40) provide power running on the dive play to improve Army’s option play.
