Larry Dixon added 69 yards and a score for the Black Knights (3-4), who went up 22-15 on Trenton Turrentine’s one-yard touchdown with 9:46 left in the second and never looked back. Turrentine finished with 92 yards.
Tyler Benz was 17 for 26 for 223 yards, two touchdowns and an interception for the Eagles (1-5, 0-2 MAC), while Bronson Hill rushed for 143 yards and a touchdown.
Army finished with 551 all-purpose yards.
