Huskies, Black Knights Set for Historic Clash at Fenway Park BOSTON (Interstat) — A surging Connecticut team and a resilient Army squad will bring their seasons to a close in a unique setting Saturday when the Huskies face the Black Knights at historic Fenway Park. The matchup, scheduled for Dec. 27, 2025, pits a Connecticut program enjoying one of its best seasons against an Army team seeking to secure a winning record. The Huskies (9-3) enter as the favorite, but the Black Knights (6-6) are familiar with close games, with five of their contests this season decided by three points or fewer. Connecticut’s offense is riding high after a 48-45 shootout victory at Florida Atlantic on Nov. 22. In that win, quarterback Joe Fagnano passed for 446 yards and three touchdowns, while running back Cam Edwards contributed 101 rushing yards, 45 receiving yards and two scores. The Huskies have won four of their last five, with the only loss in that stretch a narrow 34-37 defeat at Rice. Army’s season has been a rollercoaster, defined by dramatic finishes. Their last outing was a heartbreaking 16-17 loss to service academy rival Navy on Dec. 13. The Black Knights’ offense revolves around dynamic quarterback Cale Hellums, who poses a dual-threat challenge. In the loss to Navy, Hellums passed for 82 yards and rushed for 100 yards and a touchdown. He had a similar performance (90 rushing yards, 1 TD) in a 27-24 win over Temple on Nov. 8. The game’s location adds a distinct layer. Fenway Park, home of the Boston Red Sox, has hosted several football games in recent years but will provide a one-of-a-kind backdrop for this regional intersectional clash. According to National Statistical’s game simulator, Army is projected to win 33-22. However, oddsmakers list Connecticut as a 9.5-point favorite. The over/under is set at 43.5 points, suggesting expectations for a moderate scoring affair despite both teams’ recent offensive outputs. For Connecticut, a 10th win would cap a transformative season. For Army, a victory would not only ensure a winning record but also erase the sting of the last-second loss to Navy. The contrasting motivations set the stage for a compelling finale at America’s oldest Major League Baseball park.
