Army vs Lehigh Prediction
The Army Black Knights aren't scaring anybody with their inability to defend, and they're 1-6 SU on the road this season. That one win came against LIU, where it was a one-point game despite being a five-point favorite. The Lehigh Mountain Hawks have similar issues on the defensive side, but they're coming off a nice showing against Colgate where they had a chance to win as a seven-point dog. Also, Lehigh is undefeated at home this season and has seen five of its six wins come at home. Lehigh beat up on Army last February and should be able to build on that effort Saturday afternoon. Give me the Lehigh Mountain Hawks and whatever the line is.
