The Commander-in-Chief’s trophy is awarded to the service academy with the best record in their head-to-head games.
With a victory on Saturday, Army would claim the CIC Trophy outright for the first time since 2020, after it beat then-No. 17 Air Force 23-3 on Nov. 4 despite being an 18.5point underdog. It was the first loss of the season for the Falcons, who ultimately the last 4 games of their season.
The Midshipmen lost 17-6 to Air Force on Oct. 21, so a Navy win on Saturday would create a three-way tie for the CIC Trophy. If that happens, 2022 champion Air Force would retain the trophy.
