Bill Belichick is a Navy man.

The usually mid-Atlantic-based rivalry matchup travels up north this year to Foxborough. Belichick, the College GameDay guest picker and head coach of the New England Patriots, settled outside Gillette Stadium with the crew to make his pick for Army-Navy.

Belichick’s father was an assistant at Navy, so Belichick had to roll with the Midshipmen. However, he took a page out of Lee Corso’s book to make his pick, pulling out a 1962 Navy helmet with “Beat Army” written on the sides in Chinese.

Check it out for yourself:

Navy and Army have alternated wins back and forth since 2018, with Army winning last season’s contest 20-17. Navy leads the all-time series between the pair, 62-54-7. All 5 College GameDay pickers chose Navy to down the Black Knights.

The Black Knights and Midshipmen will kick off at 3 p.m. ET on CBS.
