Few traditions in college football are as precious as the Army-Navy game. Though the quality of the teams that play in the final game of the regular season every year varies wildly, the pomp and circumstance along with the fierce rivalry between these two service academies is truly unparalleled.
There's a reason that the Army-Navy game essentially gets its own Saturday prior to the Heisman Trophy Ceremony being held that night. It's two of the richest traditions in college football coming together as a nice bow to wrap up the year in the sport.
It's truly a throwback when you see these teams running the triple-option and knowing that the players for both the Army Black Knights and Navy Midshipmen have sacrificed in their college lives to get to this point and the service they will enter once their college football careers conclude.
