CMU 14, Army 10
CMU improves to 3-1 on the road with the win at Army. The Chippewas last won at least three games on the road in 1994, when they were 4-3 away from Kelly/Shorts Stadium.
Saturday's win was the second in as many games on the road. CMU last won road games in consecutive outings in 1993. That season, the Chippewas won at Kent State, 33-28, and at Toledo, 38-7.
Prior to Saturday, CMU had not won a game to which it had flown since a 42-21 win at Boise State in the 1996 season opener. That win at Boise was also CMU's last non-conference win on the road prior to Saturday's win at Army.
The win at Army was the first for CMU against a service academy. The Chippewas' only prior meeting with an academy program was a 63-34 loss at Navy in 2003.
Of the 44 players who saw action for CMU on Saturday, 22 were either sophomores or freshmen.
The Chippewas' 14 points on Saturday are the fewest in a winning effort since a 10-3 win against Ball State in 1991.
