Here’s how to watch Saturday’s rivalry showdown between the Army Black Knights and the Navy Midshipmen online.

One of college football’s fiercest rivalries will take center stage on Saturday afternoon when the Army Black Knights face the Navy Midshipmen at Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia.

After leading Army to its first victory over the Midshipmen since 2001 a year ago, Jeff Monken has continued his terrific rebuilding job at West Point by leading the Black Knights to an 8-3 record this season. The Black Knights have already accepted an invitation to the Armed Forces Bowl against San Diego State, and can reach the nine-win plateau for the first time in over two decades with a victory on Saturday.

Senior quarterback Ahmad Bradshaw has been the key piece behind Army’s resurgence with 189 carries for 1,472 yards and 1 total touchdowns. The Black Knights have improved tremendously on the defensive end during Monken’s tenure, with linebacker Alex Aukerman racking up 14.5 tackles for loss and six sacks to lead the way.

While Navy suffered through a bit of a down year with a 6-5 record, it will be headed to the Military Bowl to take on Virginia for its ninth postseason appearance in ten years under head coach Ken Niumatalolo. The Midshipmen have lost five of six heading into Saturday’s rivalry showdown, but played tough in close losses to Notre Dame and UCF during the stretch.

Junior quarterback Zach Abey fought through injuries all season long to pile up 1,322 yards and 14 touchdowns on 278 carries, in addition to seven passing touchdowns. Sophomore Malcolm Perry has also emerged as an efficient playmaker with 92 carries for 818 yards, including a four-touchdown performance to key a win over SMU on Nov. 11.

For the first time since 2012, the winner of the Army-Navy game will be awarded the Commander-in-Chief’s Trophy, given annually to the service academy program with the best record in round-robin competition. Army has not taken home the trophy since 1996, while the Midshipmen will try to bring the award back to Annapolis after Air Force triumphed last season.

Saturday’s game is set to kick off at 3:00 p.m. Eastern, with full streaming details available below.
