Army and Navy are off to a combined 10-0 start for the first time in nearly 80 years

Two of the three Division I Service Academy programs are each 5-0 for the first time since 1945 after Army dominated Tulsa 49-7 and Navy handily defeated Air Force 34-7 on Saturday. Both teams should also have plenty of interest in getting into the top 25 in the next US LBM coaches poll.

Because Army and Navy will be played after the conference championships, the Dec. 14 match will not count toward the College Football Playoff standings. However, the AAC title game could have legitimate CFP implications if one of the contenders is able to be the top-rated team in the Group of Five.

Army (5-0, 4-0 American) currently sits in first place in the conference standings, with AAC wins over Tulsa, Temple, Rice and Florida Atlantic. The Black Knights have also won each of their games by double digits this season, with four of their five wins coming by 17 or more points.
