A virtual sweepstakes will allow fans to celebrate the traditions and rivalry that make up the Army-Navy Game.
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, only the Brigade of Midshipmen and Corps of Cadets will be allowed in the stands when the service academies square off for the first time since World War II at West Point on Dec. 12.

USAA has planned the Army-Navy House sweepstakes to allow fans to carry on the rivalry from the comfort of home. Fans can click here and upload a photo that shows off their fandom. The photo will be entered into the sweepstakes for a chance to win a trip to the 2021 Army-Navy Game in New York City. One winner from each fandom will be chosen.
"There is no other rivalry that matches the passion, tradition and patriotism of the Army-Navy Game," said USAA Chief Brand Officer Tony Wells, a graduate of the U.S. Naval Academy. "Brothers and sisters in arms all year, this is the one afternoon when they are rivals.”

In addition to the two grand prize winners, 1,000 fans from each academy who upload a photo will be eligible to win a commemorative ticket from this year's game.
The 121st playing of the Army-Navy Game presented by USAA will air on CBS at 3 p.m. EST on Saturday. The annual game is normally the last regular-season matchup in college football, and Navy leads the series 61-52-7, having snapped a three-game Army winning streak last year.
