Team History
One of the more historic programs in the sport, Army has three Heisman Trophy winners and claims 5 nationals championships. While the modern era of football hasn't been as kind to them, they only have one losing season in the last 8 years compared to three 10+ win seasons. In a conference with their archrival Navy, it seems they may have found a nice home for the foreseeable future.
