Ranking college football’s military academies entering 2022
By Austin Lloyd
2. Army Black Knights
The level of competition between Army and Air Force is unbelievable. Both are solid college football teams by themselves, but it is especially hard to find a clear superior when considering both their schedules and how well they played against each other last year.
As an Independent power, the Black Knights have proven that they are not afraid to call up some stronger opposition. Their 2022 foes include the likes of Coastal Carolina, UTSA, Wake Forest, and Air Force — all of which won 10 games or more last season.
And while the aforementioned Navy Midshipmen are in no way a strong name entering 2022, the matchup between the two is still a big rivalry that unfolds at a neutral site. This goes without even mentioning the fact that Navy was able to stun the Black Knights last time in spite of their visual mismatch.
Looking at all of Army’s schedule, they will easily obtain yet another winning season, most likely entering the postseason with a record of 8-4.
