Army rallied from a seven-point fourth-quarter deficit, then beat Tulsa 38-35 on Dawson Jones’ 50-yard field goal as time expired. The Black Knights scored the final 10 points, capped by Cale Hellums’ tying touchdown and a blocked punt that set up the game-winning drive.

Yes, But

Army’s late comeback followed a rough stretch: the offense went three-and-out on four consecutive possessions as Tulsa took control. The Black Knights’ defense kept the deficit at seven, and a blocked punt gave the offense the short field it needed to tie the game.

State of Play
  • Army improved to 5-2 overall and 4-1 in the American Conference, extending its winning streak to three games.
  • Tulsa fell to 4-4 overall and 1-3 in conference play.
  • Hellums has 16 rushing touchdowns this season, the most among FBS players, and Jones has delivered two game-winning field goals this year.
Bottom Line

Army’s ground game and special teams turned a fading comeback into a last-second win—proof that the Black Knights stayed within striking distance long enough for one decisive play.
