WEST POINT, N.Y. – When one thinks of the greatest rivalries of all-time of course, Yankees-Red Sox, Lakers-Celtics and Packers-Bears comes to mind. But one of the biggest college rivalries is nestled between the banks of the Hudson and the Severn River.
It's a rivalry that dates back to 1890 when the two prestigious schools met for the very first time on the gridiron.
An annual battle between the football teams representing the Corps of Cadets and the Brigade of Midshipmen, who will eventually all be fighting for the same cause once their four years at the academies have concluded.
