Army and Navy will meet in the greatest rivalry in all of sports on Saturday at Lincoln Financial Field (67,594) in Philadelphia, PA  in the 123rd playing of America’s Game, the Army-Navy Game presented by USAA. CBS Sports will televise the game nationally. This is the 90th time the game has been played in Philadelphia and the 14th at “The Linc.”

Navy leads the all-time series, 62-53-7.

Navy (nor Army) can win the Commander-in Cheif’s Trophy this year, as Air Force defeated both teams earlier in the season. Navy Football is 4-7 this year and plays in the American Athletic Conference. Army is Independent and comes into the game with a 5-6 record. Neither team is bowl eligible for this year! The game is typically played on “neutral ground” and Army is considered the “home” team this year!
