Army winds up another lost season but, as usual, the Cadets don't quit, losing two of its last three contests by just a field goal. The Black Knights also fought back from a 21-point first-half deficit against Tulane to tie the game. Army ranks ninth nationally with 253.3 rushing yards per contest and will play hard this game as it's their final home contest. Army is 5-2 UNDER the total when following a loss. They face a Rutgers team winding down a lost season too, on an 0-4 spread run, plus 2-10 ATS in November. The beat up Scarlet Knights have dropped four in a row by a combined 130 points, with three of the losses coming against ranked teams Michigan State, Ohio State and Michigan. The Scarlet Knights garnered only 259 total yards last week, averaging 2.3 yards per carry and quarterback Chris Laviano threw two interceptions. Rutgers is 1-4 ATS against a team with a losing record. The Rutgers defense has enjoyed success playing against triple-option offenses, going 12-2 and holding opponents' rushing attacks under their season averages in 10 of the last 11 games. Rutgers is 15-7 UNDER the total after a defeat and 29-14 UNDER in non-conference games, and when these teams clash the UNDER is 5-1. Back Army and the UNDER.
