Bowl Predictions: Part 6

Bell Helicopter Armed Forces Bowl
Army Black Knights vs. Southern Methodist Mustangs
I have been giving teams that are playing at home or close to home an edge in my predictions, such as Hawaii and Baylor, and it has proven not to be a deciding factor.  SMU is playing in Dallas and I wanted to give them the edge. but I feel that being at home may just be a distraction. SMU quarterback Kyle Padron has three great receivers to throw to in Aldrick Robinson, Darius Johnson, and Cole Beasley. They should have a big day, but I feel the SMU defense will have trouble against Army’s triple-option just like they did against Navy’s earlier this year.  Also, Army is 6th in turnover margin, while SMU is 108th. It should make a huge difference and Army should win 30-21.
