DENTON, Texas (AP) - Trent Steelman rushed for 132 yards and the winning touchdown with 1:43 left, and Army kept its postseason hopes alive by beating North Texas 17-13 Saturday.

Army (5-6) can become bowl eligible for the first time since 1996 with a victory Dec. 12 against Navy. The Black Knights have a tie-in with the EagleBank Bowl should they win six games.

Army forced five turnovers and Marcus Hilton blocked a field goal attempt to set up Steelman's 2-yard run.

North Texas (2-9) lost its fifth game this season by a touchdown or less.

Lance Dunbar had a 68-yard touchdown run and Riley Dodge was 31 of 41 for 225 yards and three interceptions.
