The game will be played Dec. 11, 2021. The rivalry will be held in Philadelphia from 2017-2020 and again in 2022.
Navy leads the all-time series 60-50-7, and Army just ended the Midshipmen's 14-year winning streak last season.
The game is always one of the coolest games in all of college football each season and the 2021 game will be a very special way to commemorate 9/11.
