Navy’s unprecedented 12-game winning streak against Army has increased the pressure on both teams for today’s noon game on CBS. The Cadets (4-7) are desperate to snap a slide that began when the current crop of players was in grade school. The Midshipmen (6-5) are determined to maintain the upper hand in a series that began in 1890. “The streak is out there. Everybody on the team, everybody at the school realizes that,” Navy senior captain Parrish Gaines said. “It does kind of seem like something we’ve got to do. Everybody I’ve played with on this team has beat these guys every year.” – Associated Press
