San Diego State comes in off their fourth consecutive win when they dismantled New Mexico 35-10 in San Diego on Thanksgiving Weekend.

Army comes in off an emotional win as they knocked off their arch rival Navy in America’s Game by a score of 14-13. The win secured Army’s first Commander-In-Chief’s Trophy since 1996. Despite spending years in the doldrums of mediocrity, the Black Knights have an opportunity to finish the season with 10 wins. This would be a milestone for Army be that they have not achieved such a feat in over 20 years.
