“Our boys played their hearts,” said Tarleton’s head coach Todd Whitten, through the school’s website. “I don’t have the words to tell you how proud I am from these boys. They are exceptional. Our coaches had a great game plan. It is a great victory for our program.
“We have not played very well against the teams (in FBS) in recent years and (the army) has a good team. 12-2 a year ago. This is an outstanding day for our football program, our university and all those involved.”
The Army won the American Athletic Conference last year and the Independence Bowl.
