Bronx, N.Y. (November 21, 2014) -  The Fordham University football Rams close out their 2014 regular season as they travel to West Point, N.Y., to face the Army Black Knights in Michie Stadium on Saturday, November 22, at 12:00 p.m.
 
The game will be broadcast live on the CBS Sports Network Ben Holden (p-b-p), Kevin O'Connell (color) and Courtney Fallon (sidelines) announcing. The game will also be heard live on WFUV (90.7 FM) and on WFUV.org with Mike Watts (p-b-p), Nick Logerfo (color) and Kelly Kultys (sidelines) handling the announcing chores.
 
#7/8 Fordham, 10-1 overall, enters the game after a 52-7 Patriot League win over Georgetown last Saturday on Jack Coffey Field as the Rams won the league title. Army enters the game with a 3-7 overall record after a 52-24 loss at Western Kentucky last week.
 
A few notes on the game:
 
Joining captains Stephen Hodge, Dan Light and Ian Williams will be the game captain Brian Wetzel (offense), Jake Dixon (defense) and Jordan Chapman (special teams).
 
The scout team players of the week were announced following practice on Thursday: Nick Krejci (offense), Jonathan Dimon (defense) and James Orfini (special teams)
 
This will be the fourth meeting between Fordham and Army on the gridiron
 
The Black Knights won all three previous meetings, including a 55-0 win in blizzard-like conditions at West Point in 2011
 
It will be the fourth straight year that the Rams have played an FBS team (UConn and Army in 2011, Cincinnati in 2012 and Temple last year).
 
Fordham freshman running back Chase Edmonds leads the NCAA FCS in rushing touchdowns (21), is fifth in all-purpose yards/game, averaging 173.3 yards/game, sixth in rushing yards (1,470) and eighth in rushing yards/game (133.6)
 
Fordham senior tight end Dan Light, defensive lineman DeAndre Slate and defensive back Ian Williams will all appear in their 48th straight game when the Rams travel to Army on Saturday, setting a school record. Williams will also add to his school record as he will be appearing in his school-record 50th game (Williams played in two games as a freshman in 2010 before missing the rest of the season with an injury) while Light and Slate have appeared in every game for the Ram since stepping on campus in 2011.
