Most of us didn’t attend WestPoint, Annapolis or Colorado Springs. Go Army, Beat Navy! Do you cheer for your service academy’s football team?

SSG Private RallyPoint Member, I always pull for all the service academies. I like for them to do well. I even tune in and watch them play periodically. I'm pleased to know I'm watching true student athletes play. I would like to go to West Point, tour the academy and grounds and then watch Army play in Michie Stadium someday. I always pull for USMA when they play USAFA and/or USNA. Should they play my alma mater, Auburn University, then I'm pulling for the Auburn Tigers!
Of the three, Auburn has faced only West Point in the modern football era, beating them 32-29 in the Independence Bowl on 31DEC96.
WAR EAGLE! GO ARMY!

The good thing about a long winning streak - 14 straight years of Navy overcoming the black knights - coming to an end is that it opens the opportunity to start a new winning streak in 2017. Go Navy beat army!!! ⚓

Best service academy isn't mentioned; US Coast Guard Academy at New London, CT. Go Bears.
Recent news article, "The U.S. Coast Guard Academy has again been recognized this year as one of the best undergraduate educational institutions in the nation. According to U.S. News & World Report Best Colleges 2017 rankings, the Academy placed No. 1 in the "Top Public Schools", Regional Colleges North category.

And, we must include the fifth service academy; US Merchant Marine Academy at Kings Point, NY.
