It's that time of year again! As a Navy fan Army was fantastic last year and seems to be a slight favorite tomorrow.

Go Navy, Beat Army!

Army and Navy first met on the field on November 29, 1890. They played 30 times between that date and November 26, 1927. The series has been renewed annually since 1930. The game has been held at several locations throughout its history, including Baltimore and New York City, but has most frequently been played in Philadelphia, roughly equidistant from the two academies. Historically played on the Saturday after Thanksgiving (a date on which most other major college football teams end their regular seasons), the game is now played on the second Saturday in December and is traditionally the last game of the season for both teams and the last regular-season game played in Division I FBS football. With the permanent expansion of the regular season to 12 games starting in 2006, several conference championship games joined the Army–Navy Game on its then-current date of the first weekend of December. In 2009, the game was moved from the first Saturday in December to the second Saturday; this means that it no longer conflicts with conference championship games and once again is the last non-bowl contest in college football.[5]

The pre-game festivities are great fun to watch, especially in person. I hope PDJT will be there. I remember last year when he spoke with the announcers. IIRC one was a supporter, the other not so much but he got downplayed. What a happy time.

Just wish all of college football emulated these teams and pageantry, but that is so 1940ish of me.
