South Florida vs. Army Preview
- Army's option offense exceeded 500 rushing yards against Bryant, with quarterback Cale Hellums adding 87 rushing yards and two rushing touchdowns but completing only four of nine passes for 59 yards; the production came against an FCS opponent that finished 3-9 last season.
- Army generated explosive slotback production in its opener: Zach Mundell gained 105 yards and scored twice on four carries, while Stratton Fuller and Samari Howard gained 67 and 63 yards respectively on four carries each, contrasting with Godspower Nwawuihe's 53 yards on 11 attempts.
- The preview expects Army's slow option tempo to limit South Florida's possessions, making the Bulls' drive-killing mistakes especially costly; this is the writer's matchup concern rather than a measured pace projection or a new betting recommendation.
