2026-27 Outlook
LangIndex projects Army at #361 nationally for the 2026-27 college basketball season with a projected efficiency margin of -7.0 points per 100 possessions. The model projects a step back from last season's #340 finish. This projects as a development year.
With 85% of last season's minutes returning, this is one of the more continuous rosters in the country, and that tends to be a real edge in November and December.
Last Season (2025-26)
Army finished 2025-26 at 9-21, ranked #340 in the final LangIndex ratings with adjusted offense of 95.0 and adjusted defense of 122.7 points per 100 possessions.
How LangIndex Rates Army
Army's power rating of -7.0 is an adjusted efficiency margin: the points per 100 possessions the model expects them to outscore an average Division I team by, once you strip out schedule strength. It combines adjusted offensive efficiency, adjusted defensive efficiency, and pace into one number, so a rating of -7.0 means Army projects to lose to a neutral-court average team by about 5 points on a typical night.
