Had to chuckle a little reading that. Regardless of how good or bad those two teams are it's one of the only non premier/top 5 team matchups that you know is going to get eyeballs. Casual football fan sees two games on TV. A total blowout from the FCS playoffs in a stadium that has black walls 5 ft out of the back of the end zone or Army/Navy. Which do you think they will watch?
