They need to hurry up and build the Space Force Academy in Huntsville so we can have a second serving with Air Force vs. Space Force after the Army-Navy game.

I always wondered why these two service academies became “the game,” as opposed to Army vs. Air Force or Navy vs. Air Force.

Two very obvious reasons.
1. USMA and USNA have been around a LOT longer than the AFA.
2. Geography. West Point and Annapolis are relatively close, while Colorado Springs is a long fricking way from either one of them.

It was shocking bc surely sms wouldn't type something like that.
At quick glance, Navy kinda looks like the Patriots today.
