Army vs American Prediction

In this Army vs American Prediction, American is coming as -9.5 home favorites. American has been the better team this season but have been struggling mightily lately with five consecutive losses and 0-5 ATS. Army has not been faring much better either, as they are 3-7 in their last 10 games and 2-8 against the spread, so I see no value on either side. Both teams are 11-4 to the under in their last 15 games combined, as both defenses have been greatly improved lately. Their previous meeting this season was also a low-scoring one, so take the under 144.5 points in this one.
