After five straight losing seasons, Army is 6-5 and the Black Knights are bowl bound. They will play in the Zaxby's Bowl Dec. 27 in Dallas against North Texas. The last winning season was in 2010 when Army finished 7-6.

Navy is coming off a 34-10 loss to Temple University after a four-game win streak. The Midshipmen enter the game with a 9-3 record and will play in the Armed Forces Bowl against the Louisiana Tech Bulldogs Dec. 23 in Amon G. Carter Stadium in Fort Worth, Texas.

The Army vs Navy game will air on CBS at 3 p.m. CBS will air its pregame show from 2:30-3 p.m.

AIMING FOR HISTORY

Navy head coach Ken Niumatalolo is 8-0 all-time against Army West Point and is the first head coach in the history of the Army-Navy game to win his first eight games against the rival service academy. A win Saturday would make him the winningest coach in the history of the Army-Navy game. He is currently tied for first with College Football Hall of Fame coach Army West Point's Earl Blaik, who was 8-8-2 (.500) from 1941-58 against Navy.

Navy and Army West Point enter the game with winning records for the first time since 2010. Navy won that game, 31-17.
