What to expect in the Army vs. East Carolina game?

One of the factors fans should look for in today's matchup will be Black Knights quarterback Bryson Daily's ability to rush for touchdowns. Daily has 14 rushing touchdowns in six games. East Carolina's defense will have to contain and pursue Daily to prevent him from running to the endzone.

The Pirates offense will hope to score more points this week after losing by 31 points to the Charlotte 49ers in Week 6. In the game, East Carolina quarterback Jake Garcia had one touchdown and one interception as the team struggled to keep up with the 49ers' offensive output.

The undefeated Black Knights may present a tougher challenge today and will have the crowd on their side at the Michie Stadium in West Point, New York.

The Pirates offense must be careful with turnovers against their opponents today. Garcia has thrown for eight touchdowns and 12 interceptions, which has affected the team's ability to win games. His performance will be tested against the Black Knights defense.

East Carolina isn't incapable of winning today but will have to play its best game this season to end the Army's winning streak.
