Army football has 11 wins but according to coach Jeff Monken, “It doesn’t become a great season unless we win this game Saturday,”

From 1999 to 2015, Navy flat-out dominated Army winning all but one game. That stretch of wins help put the Midshipmen ahead of the Black Knights in the all-time head-to-head matchup, which currently favors Navy at 62-55-7.
