The Army-Navy Game, the greatest rivalry in sports, is set to take place on Saturday, Dec. 14 at Northwest Stadium in Landover, Maryland. Both teams are gearing up to battle it out for bragging rights in the final game of the 2024 regular season. The pageantry of this historic matchup is unlike any other in sports, and CBS will be broadcasting all the action on that Saturday afternoon in December.
In recent years, the Army-Navy rivalry has been fiercely contested, with each team experiencing its own periods of dominance. The Black Knights have emerged victorious in six of their last eight matchups against Navy, and a win this year would equal their longest winning streak since 1996. However, Navy has also had its share of success, boasting a 14-game winning streak from 2002-15, the longest in the rivalry’s history. With Navy leading the all-time series with a 62-55-7 record, this year’s game promises to be an intense battle, especially since neither team has won by more than six points in the last three years.
One of the highlights of this year’s Army-Navy Game is the presence of the Commander-in-Chief’s Trophy, which will be up for grabs. Both Army and Navy have secured wins against Air Force, setting the stage for a showdown with the trophy on the line. While the game may not impact the College Football Playoff race directly, as the final rankings will be released before the matchup, there is still a lot at stake for both teams.
Offensively, both Army and Navy have shown improvement this season, with the Black Knights averaging 35.3 points per game and the Midshipmen close behind at 32.1. This resurgence in scoring could lead to a high-scoring affair between the two teams. Navy will be looking to bounce back from a recent rough patch, as they aim to regain their early-season form before facing Army.
The Army-Navy Game is scheduled to kick off at 3 p.m. ET on Saturday, Dec. 14 at Northwest Stadium in Landover, Maryland. Fans can catch all the action live on CBS or stream the game on Paramount + with Showtime, CBSSports.com, or the CBS Sports App for free.
