Template:1930 college football independents records The 1930 Army Cadets football team represented the United States Military Academy in the 1930 college football season. In their first season under head coach Ralph Sasse, the Cadets compiled a 9–1–1 record, shut out seven of their eleven opponents, and outscored all opponents by a combined total of 268 to 22, an average of 24.4 points scored and 2.0 points allowed per game.[1] In the annual Army–Navy Game, the Cadets defeated the Midshipmen 6–0. The team's only blemish was a 7–6 loss to undefeated national champion Notre Dame team in Knute Rockne's final year as head coach.[2]

Two Army players were recognized on the All-America team. Tackle Jack Price received first-team honors from the North American Newspaper Association (NANA) and the Los Angeles Times.[3][4] Guard Charles Humber received second-team honors from the International News Service (INS) and third-team honors from the Associated Press (AP).[5][6]
