Tyler Benz completed 17-of-26 passes for 223 yards and two touchdowns for Eastern Michigan (1-5). Bronson Hill ran for 143 yards and a score while catching four passes for 91 yards and another touchdown as the Eagles dropped their fifth straight game.
Baggettกฏs second touchdown - a 67-yard burst with 3:35 left in the first quarter - knotted the contest at 15-15. Turrentine put the Black Knights in front for good with a 1-yard score 9:46 before the half.
Baggett scampered for a 34-yard touchdown to make it 29-18 in the third and scored again just over two minutes later from deep in Army territory, breaking out a 96-yard scoring run. Dixonกฏs 30-yard score came with 1:40 left in the third as the Black Knights pushed the lead to 43-18.
