Army and Navy Football Both Ranked in AP Top 25 for First Time Since 1960

Last week, Army and Navy each reached 5-0 in the same season for the first time since 1945. On Sunday they both landed spots in the AP Top 25 for the first time since October 1960. It’s conceivable we could get an Army-Navy American Athletic championship game in Week 15 (possibly with the winner qualifying for the College Football Playoff), followed by the normal Army-Navy game in Landover, Maryland, the next Saturday.

Navy football appeared in the Week 8 Associated Press Top 25, checking in at No. 25 in the poll that was released Sunday. The Midshipmen are ranked for the first time since the end of the 2019 season, when they ended the year ranked 20th.

Army (6-0, 5-0American Athletic Conference) is also ranked this week, with the Black Knights coming in at 23rd in the poll. It’s the first time the two rivals have been ranked in the same week since 1960. They haven’t been undefeated this late in a season since 1945.
