Oct 5, 2024, 07:21 PM

Army and Navy football teams have both achieved a 5-0 record for the first time since 1945. With Missouri's defeat, Army now holds the longest active winning streak in the nation at 9 games. Navy's recent victory over Air Force, with a score of 34-7, marks their first road win against the rival since 2012 and ends a four-game losing streak to Air Force. Both teams are strong contenders for the College Football Playoff (CFP) and could potentially play in back-to-back weeks if they qualify for the AAC title game. Their combined 10-0 record is unprecedented since 1945, making them significant players in this year's college football season. Army and Navy were leading by double digits in the third quarter of their respective games and both achieved 25-point road wins on the same day for the first time since October 27, 1956.
