It's time for one of the most historic and prestigious rivalry games in sports.

Army and Navy will conclude the college football regular season with their 125th annual meeting. The two service academies have faced off every year since 1930, and their first matchup was way back in 1890.

No. 22 Army (11-1) enters as the favorite this year after winning the AAC Championship Game last week, but Navy (8-3) has had a solid season of its own. Eight of the last 10 Army-Navy games have been decided by one score, so it's fair to expect another tight battle on Saturday.
