For one Saturday during the college football season, all eyes are focused on a single game. 

Army and Navy will square off for the 124th time on Saturday at Gillette Stadium for a 3:00 p.m. ET kickoff in Foxborough, MA.

The matchup is being played away from Philadelphia, PA, for the next four years, starting with Saturday’s game in New England. "America’s Game" will then head to Washington, D.C. in 2024, Baltimore in 2025 and New Jersey in 2026.

"We've got our 250th anniversary of the Revolution coming up this year and I can't think of a better way to kick it off than with America's Game here," Massachusetts governor Maura Healy said during the kickoff luncheon, according to the New England Patriots website. 

Both teams enter Saturday’s game with a record of 5-6 and neither will be playing in a bowl game this season, meaning the matchup will be the final sendoff for seniors on both sidelines. 

It will be a game between two programs known historically for running the football, and the 2023 offenses are no different. 

Army is 10th in the country with 209 rushing yards per game, while Navy rushes for 200.5 yards per contest, good for 14th in the nation.
