ARMED FORCES BOWL - Missouri barely got to bowl-eligibility with a 6-6 record, even while losing 34-17 to Arkansas in its last game to drop its ATS record to 3-9. The Tigers' season included blowout losses against Tennessee and Georgia, and they have the #110 defense in the country in total yards allowed while also giving up 34.7 points per game. Army did lose to Navy, but the Black Knights offense is still difficult to defend against for teams unlike Navy that are not used to seeing the option play after play. Army rang up 56 points against Wake Forest, and it averages 33.6 points per game. The Black Knights have four players with at least 400 yards rushing, including Tyrell Robinson, who averages 9.1 yards per carry, and Jakobi Buchanan, who has 11 touchdowns. Missouri's quarterback situation is in flux as any one of three QBs could start. Connor Bazelak exited the Oct. 30 game against Vanderbilt with an injury, and then Brady Cook and Tyler Macon split time the following week against Georgia. Bazelak started against the Razorbacks and completed only 10 of 26 for 65 yards and no TDs with an interception. Missouri is 3-14 ATS its past 17 December games and 3-15 ATS overall after an ATS loss. Army is 12-4-1 ATS in December and 6-2-1 ATS at neutral-site games. Take Army for a Max Play.
