One of the oldest rivalries in college football returns this Saturday, as Army and Navy will face off for the 126th time history. In less than 48 hours, thousands of cadets and Midshipmen will march in unison from Camden Yards to the football field as both teams prepare for the game which was first played back in 1890.

The Army-Navy game has been played nearly every since that first meeting between the two teams in 1890, when Navy shut out Army 24-0. The game has taken place all but 10 times since 1890; in 1894-1898, 1909, 1917-18 and 1928-29. Since 1930, the game has been played every single year.

Before the game begins, here’s a look back at the history of one of the most storied rivalries.
