Livescore
Army beat rival Air Force to continue its FBS-best 12-game win streak. The Black Knights were far less efficient than usual on offense, converting just 4 of 12 third-down attempts — they entered the week second nationally completing 55% of their third downs — but their defense stepped up, holding the Falcons to just 196 total yards while forcing a trio of interceptions.

Air Force (1-7) hasn’t been the same since losing to Army last November. The Falcons entered that week at 8-0 and ranked No, 25 nationally. They’ve now lost 12 straight regular season games against FBS competition in the time since.
