Army defends the belt, 28–0, at home over Lehigh.
Where this game sits in the lineage
Army came in 7 days into reign #30, which began with a win over Yale, with no defenses yet; this was its first defense. It was the last defense: Harvard took the belt in the very next belt game, on October 29, 1910.
For Lehigh this was its 10th shot at the belt; it had never held the belt.
This is the only time Army and Lehigh have met with the belt on the line.

Written by Claude, strictly from this site’s own record of the game — the score and what it meant for the belt. CFBD doesn’t have a box score for games this old, so nothing here is invented beyond what’s verifiably on file.
