Johnson has Navy seniors on the cusp of service sweep
Paul Johnson has his Navy seniors on the brink of a historic feat: a four year sweep of Army and Air Force.
Should the Midshipmen win the 107th Army-Navy game Saturday, they will capture the "Commander inChief" Trophy outright for the fourth straight year and make Navy's senior class the first in school history to go 8-0 against the other two service academies.
Navy's fifth year coach says he hopes that will motivate his team. But he knows Army seniors will be motivated to post a win.
Army co-captain Cameron Craig says the past few years haven't been much fun, with Navy dominating them. But he says his team is motivated to finally get a win.
The game will be played tomorrow at Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia.
