Army-Navy Game: Best Tradition in College Football

A few weeks ago some ESPN bozo put together a list of the best college football rivalries. I actually like Jim Caple, but I stopped reading when I saw Army-Navy was listed at #10.

Watch the final minutes and post-game ritual of singing each others alma mater and tell me this isn't one of the great rivalries and traditions in all of sports. This is the one game that means just as much every single year regardless of records. Do you see Michigan players crying when they lose to Ohio State? This means more. Plus the flyover always gets to you.

I think it's pretty cool that the series history remains this close:
Navy 51, Army 49, seven ties.

The Midshipmen should roll this year, but you just never know. Paul Johnson is more than likely coaching his last game for Navy. If you're watching this one, feel free to chat it up.

Army's had some key mistakes so far (dropped TD pass, missed FG, bad punt), and Navy has just scored on a long run. 7-0 Navy.

Last play of the half, Navy attempts a 54 yard field goal. Off the crossbar and over, it's good. Navy's really feeling it, up 24-3 at the half.
