How Navy Midshipmen’s Schedule Works
As an American Conference member, Navy plays a set of AAC league games that the conference typically finalizes only about a year in advance, which is why its confirmed future schedule is mostly non-conference. Navy independently locks in its marquee rivalries years ahead: Army every December, Air Force annually for the Commander-in-Chief’s Trophy, and Notre Dame in most seasons. It fills remaining non-conference dates with a mix of regional FBS and FCS opponents.
