For decades, the Navy-Notre Dame series has been touted as the “longest, continuous intersectional rivalry” in college football.
Multiple sources have told The Capital the Navy-Notre Dame game will not be played this season. A formal announcement could come today after the Atlantic Coast Conference reveals its 2020 schedule.
Notre Dame was forced to make a decision about the Navy game after the ACC announced changes to its basic schedule format on July 29. That plan called for member schools to play 10 conference contests plus one non-conference game. A mandate was included that non-conference matchup must be held within the state of the member school.
