What game would you prefer they go to, keeping in mind Army-Navy is the only college game being played that week?

 

Well, I'll be damned.... that sounded so weird, I had to go look it up and see... and you're absolutely right...

 

I take it all back.

Breaking: For the first time, GameDay will be LIVE from Baltimore for the Army-Navy game on December 13th! #GetUp4GameDay

And I believe that's the first time, GameDay has come to the state of Maryland for football. Lee Corso (I think) has said before he'd like GameDay to get there.

 

I wonder if they'll do a three hours broadcast for this since it is the only game and it's not on a ESPN network. They could use this as a season in review type show as well.

I'm sure it will be heavy on Playoff/bowl game talk as well, since all that will have been announced just days earlier. And you have the Heisman presentation that night.

Love Army Navy. The signs at gameday are hilarious. Navy helmets look awsome too.

Also take Navy to cover -21.5

Those helmets are awesome.

[RShack]

While the Navy helmets were better (IMO), Army did something different too...

 

 

The insignia represent different divisions... including different kinds of divisions... they make sense if you know the nature and focus of each division....

But I don't know how they could have topped what Navy did... as we have seen elsewhere:

Down at the Harbor today huh?  That's pretty cool.  Would have been fun to go down for that.

 

I was very glad I got to go to the Army/Navy game a few years ago.  That was quite the spectacle.

So... is it's Paul Johnson's offense vs Paul Johnson's offense?.... that's not something you see every day....

Too bad Navy's down to their 4th string QB... 1st GS ever... 4th game ever... watched from the stands last year... not what you need if you're running that offense, too much rides on his split-second decision making...

Totally agree and it showed yesterday. Kid might really be a good one but if Navy had one of their more experienced QBs able to play their streak would be in tact.

Or if they hadn't played the week before..which was a first.

Army was very well rested and it showed.

Navy leading 10-7.

[BSLZackKiesel]

Always look forward to this game every year. Best rivalry in sports in my book.

 

I always had a connection to Navy with my uncle being a retired captain, but now working as a Navy defense contractor and interacting with Navy leadership on a daily basis this game feels even more special.

 

Beat Army!

13-7 Navy.... 11 minutes to go.
