College GameDay is returning to the Army-Navy game.

ESPN made an early announcement on Saturday that the traveling pregame show will feature Army-Navy on Dec. 9, Week 15 of the college football season. The College Football Playoff selection committee releases its final rankings on Dec. 3 after conference championship games.

GameDay will be featuring Army-Navy for the 9th time, having previously traveled to game sites in East Rutherford, N.J., West Point, N.Y., Baltimore and Philadelphia. Last year’s game did not get the GameDay treatment, frustrating many college football fans.

This year marks the 124th playing of the game, as the Black Knights face the Midshipmen for the coveted Commander-in-Chief’s Trophy. The game will be played at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, Mass., marking the first time the home of the NFL’s New England Patriots hosts “America’s Game.”

The game is being held in the Boston area in conjunction with the 250th anniversary of the Boston Tea Party and the 225th anniversary of the USS Constitution’s maiden voyage. Navy will be the home team for the first Army-Navy game ever played in New England.

Host Rece Davis will be joined at the desk by GameDay analysts Lee Corso, Kirk Herbstreit, Desmond Howard and Pat McAfee. Reporters and analysts Pete Thamel, Jen Lada and Jess Sims and ‘Stanford Steve’ Coughlin will also contribute to the show. A former Navy assistant coach (1966-68), Corso has picked the Midshipmen each of the eight previous times the game was featured on the show, going 4-4 with his picks.
