What threw me before I even got to the 'role' was the use of 'Army' as if it were a proper noun. I would have said, "We definitely came in knowing that _the_ Army was on a roll." (unless, of course, the rest of the paragraph set it up differently...I can't imagine how, though :-)

ReplyDeleteIn this case Army is correct because Cornell played Army. I guess they play Navy, too. I guess I should have said this was a sporting contest.
ReplyDeleteAh! Yes, that does make sense. Thanks for the clarification!
