The Black Knights' last win against an AP-ranked team came on Nov. 4, 1972 against No. 19 Air Force.
upset No. 25 Air Force 23-3 on Saturday at Empower Field, ending a 52-game losing streak against AP-ranked teams dating back to 1972. Here’s what you need to know: The Black Knights’ last win against an AP-ranked team came on Nov. 4, 1972 against No. 19 Air Force. Army’s defense forced six turnovers, recovering four fumbles and picking off quarterback twice. Black Knights quarterback rushed for two touchdowns and 170 yards on 36 carries, adding 40 yards through the air.
These teams practice and prepare for each other’s offenses all season long, and they’re almost always close and they always hit the under. So while a 2-6 team upsetting an 8-0 team feels surprising, Army winning this game doesn’t actually feel that surprising, even if Air Force was a 17.5-point favorite . This also means the Army-Navy Game will have Commander-In-Chief’s Trophy ramifications, as Army can win the trophy again with a win in that game.
