The first matchup was on November 29th, 1890. The Navy Midshipmen beat the Army Black Knights 24-0. This weekend marks the 125th meeting of Army vs. Navy in football. The game is being played on Saturday at 2 PM at Northwest Stadium in Landover, Maryland, located 5 miles east of Washington, DC. Broadcasters Rich DeMarco and Joe Miller, who broadcast for the Army and Navy, respectfully talked a little about why this matchup is such a huge deal.
There is a little extra feeling with the game being held in Washington DC. It's only the second time this matchup has occurred in the capital city.
Adding to the historical reverence of this game, for only the second time since 1950, The Army Black Knights are 8-0 in conference and 11-1 on the season making them No. 1 in the AAC. And the Navy Midshipmen are 6-2 in conference and 8-3 overall, tying them for third in the AAC.
As far as predictions go both broadcasters think their team will win.
Army won last year 17-11. The game is on CBS with pregame at 1:30.
