The first game between Army and Navy was on November 29, 1890. Since then, the two academies have played annually in all but ten years, and have played in consecutive annual games every season since 1930. Throughout its history, the game has been played in several neutral locations, including New York City and Baltimore, but it is most commonly played in Philadelphia, which is roughly equidistant from the two academies. Historically played on the Saturday after Thanksgiving (a date on which most other major college football teams end their regular seasons), the game is now played on the second Saturday in December and is traditionally the last regular-season game played in NCAA Division I football.

For much of the first two thirds of the 20th century, both Army and Navy were often national powers, and the game occasionally had national championship implications. However, as the level of play in college football increased, both academies' stringent admissions standards and height and weight limits made it difficult for them to compete. Since 1963, only the 1996, 2010, 2016, 2017, and 2024 games have seen both teams enter with winning records. Nonetheless, the game is considered a college football institution. The tradition associated with the game has kept it airing nationally on radio since 1930 and on television since 1945. It has remained an over-the-air broadcast even in the age of cable, satellite, and streaming.

The game is especially emotional for the seniors, called "first classmen" by both academies, since it is typically the last competitive regular season football game they will ever play (though they sometimes play in a subsequent bowl game). However, some participants in the Army–Navy Game have gone on to professional football careers. For example, quarterback Roger Staubach (Navy, 1965) went on to a Hall of Fame career with the National Football League's Dallas Cowboys that included starting at quarterback in two Super Bowl victories (including being named the Most Valuable Player of Super Bowl VI), and Alejandro Villanueva (Army, 2010) was later an offensive tackle with the NFL's Pittsburgh Steelers and Baltimore Ravens.{{cite web|url=https://www.baltumoreravens.com/nees/alejandro-villanueva-retires-from-nfl-ravens-steelers-army|work=BaltimoreRavens.com|title=Ravens Place Alejandro Villaneuva on Reserve/Retired List|date=March 9, 2022|accessdate= July 28, 2022|first=Clifton|last=Brown}}

The game is the last of three contests in the annual Commander-in-Chief's Trophy series, awarded to each season's winner of the triangular series among Army, Navy, and Air Force since 1972. The rivalries Army and Navy have with Air Force are much less intense than the Army–Navy rivalry, primarily due to the relative youth of the USAFA, established in 1954, and the physical distance between the USAFA and the other two schools. The Army–Air Force and Navy–Air Force games are usually played at the academies' regular home fields, although on occasion they have been held at a neutral field.

Since 1901, there have been ten sitting presidents of the United States to attend the Army–Navy Game. The first was Theodore Roosevelt, who attended the game in 1901 and 1905. Harry S. Truman attended all but one edition during his eight years in office (1945–1952), missing the 1951 game due to vacation. George W. Bush and Donald Trump each attended three times; Bush in 2001, 2004, and 2008, and Trump in 2018, 2019, and 2020. Trump also attended two games as president-elect in 2016 and 2024.{{cite web|url=https://www.npr.org/2016/12/10/505113639/trump-attends-army-navy-game-as-black-knights-snap-14-year-losing-streak|title=Trump Attends Army-Navy Game As Black Knights Snap 14-Year Losing Streak|publisher=npr.org|date=December 10, 2016|access-date=December 12, 2021}} John F. Kennedy attended both games played during his presidency in 1961 and 1962; he was assassinated fifteen days before the 1963 game. Presidents who each attended once include Woodrow Wilson (1913), Calvin Coolidge (1924), Gerald Ford (1974), Bill Clinton (1996), and Barack Obama (2011).{{cite web |last1=Regan |first1=Brett |title=The 10 Sitting Presidents Who Attended the Army-Navy Game |url=https://fanbuzz.com/college-football/potus-army-navy-game/ |website=FanBuzz |date=December 10, 2019 |access-date=March 4, 2021}}{{cite web|url=https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/dc-sports-bog/wp/2016/12/08/donald-trump-will-observe-time-honored-tradition-at-army-navy-game/|title=donald-trump-will-observe-time-honored-tradition-at-army-navy-game|work=washingtonpost.com|date=December 8, 2016|access-date=December 12, 2021}}

On October 25, 2023, it was announced that Army would join Navy in the American Athletic Conference (AAC) in football effective in the 2024 season. As part of the arrangement, the Army–Navy Game will remain an out-of-conference date for both schools, and still be played on an annual basis. In the event that the teams possess the two highest win-loss records within the AAC, it is conceivable that they would contend in an AAC Championship game, potentially leading to the occurrence of consecutive Army–Navy Games.{{cite web|url=https://www.espn.com/college-football/story/_/id/38741191/army-set-join-aac-football-sources-say-navy-game-intact|title=Army set to join AAC for football, sources say; Navy game intact|website=ESPN.com|date=October 25, 2023}}

The rivalry between Annapolis and West Point, while friendly, is intense. The phrases "Beat Navy!" and "Beat Army!" are ingrained in the respective institutions and have become a symbol of competitiveness, not just in the Army–Navy Game, but in the service of the country. The phrases are often used at the close of (informal) letters by graduates of both academies.

A long-standing tradition at the Army{{ndash}}Navy football game is to conduct a formal "prisoner exchange" as part of the pre-game activities. The prisoners are the cadets and midshipmen currently spending the semester studying at the sister academy. After the exchange, students have a brief reprieve to enjoy the game with their comrades.{{cite web|last=Eastwood|first=Kathy|url=https://www.usma.edu/news/SitePages/Cadets,%20midshipmen%20will%20participate%20in%20traditional%20exchange%20at%20Army-Navy%20Game.aspx|title=West Point, Naval exchange students gear up for big game|work=United States Military Academy|access-date=November 17, 2017|archive-date=October 27, 2017|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20171027130953/http://www.usma.edu/news/SitePages/Cadets,%20midshipmen%20will%20participate%20in%20traditional%20exchange%20at%20Army-Navy%20Game.aspx|url-status=dead}} During the pre-game ceremony, the invocation is followed by the American national anthem sung by members of the USMA and USNA choirs.{{cite web|url=https://www.westpoint.edu/military/directorate-of-cadet-activities/clubs/diversity-clubs/gospel-choir|title=Gospel Choir|work=United States Military Academy|access-date=December 24, 2019|archive-date=December 25, 2019|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20191225053252/https://www.westpoint.edu/military/directorate-of-cadet-activities/clubs/diversity-clubs/gospel-choir|url-status=dead}} At the end of the game, both teams' almae matres are performed.

Since the winning team's alma mater is always played last, the phrase "sing second" has become synonymous with winning the rivalry game.

Navy Midshipman (and later Admiral) Joseph Mason Reeves wore what is widely regarded as the first football helmet in the 1893 Army–Navy Game. He had been advised by a Navy doctor that another kick to his head would result in intellectual disability or even death, so he commissioned an Annapolis shoemaker to make him a helmet out of leather.[http://www.pasttimesports.biz/history.html "History of the Football Helmet"] from [http://www.pasttimesports.biz/ Past Time Sports].

On November 27, 1926, the Army–Navy Game was held in Chicago for the National Dedication of Soldier Field as a monument to American servicemen who had fought in World War I. Navy came to the game undefeated, while Army had only lost to Notre Dame. Played before a crowd of over 100,000, the teams fought to a 21–21 tie, resulting in Navy being awarded a share of the national championship.[http://www.usna.edu/LibExhibits/Archives/Armynavy/An1926.htm Nimitz Library | U.S. Naval Academy Archival Images: Army–Navy Football: 1926. ] Accessed December 31, 2009 {{webarchive |url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090114060018/http://www.usna.edu/LibExhibits/Archives/Armynavy/An1926.htm |date=January 14, 2009 }}[http://fs.ncaa.org/Docs/stats/football_records/2020/FBS.pdf "NCAA Record Book"] from [http://www.ncaa.org/ NCAA].

In both the 1944 and 1945 contests, Army and Navy entered the game ranked #1 and #2 respectively.{{Cite web|url=http://mentalfloss.com/article/29457/army-navy-footballs-greatest-rivalry|title=Army–Navy: Football's Greatest Rivalry|last=Fernandes|first=Andréa|date=December 10, 2011|website=mentalfloss.com|language=en|access-date=December 15, 2018}} The 1945 game was labeled the "game of the century" before it was played. Army (9–0) defeated Navy (7-0-1) with a score of 32–13. Navy's tie was against Notre Dame."Middies All Hepped Up to Knock Over Cadets". Los Angeles Times, November 27, 1945. "Navy, far from conceding next Saturday's football 'game of the century' to Army, will field a spirited, offense-minded team determined to win and 'not merely hold down the score,' Public Relations Chief Lt. William Sullivan said today."

In 1963, shortly after the assassination of President John F. Kennedy, Jacqueline Kennedy urged the academies to play after there had been talk of cancellation. Originally scheduled for November 30, 1963, the game was played on December 7, 1963, also coinciding with the 22nd anniversary of Pearl Harbor Day.{{cite web|last=Norlander|first=Matt|title=Film on '63 Army–Navy game shows impact of rivalry, JFK tragedy|url=http://www.cbssports.com/general/eye-on-sports/24233349/film-on-63-armynavy-game-shows-impact-of-rivalry-jfk-tragedy|work=CBS Sports|access-date=December 12, 2013}} In front of a crowd of 102,000 people at Philadelphia Municipal Stadium, later renamed John F. Kennedy Stadium, junior (second class midshipman) quarterback Roger Staubach led number two ranked Navy to victory which clinched a Cotton Bowl national championship matchup with Texas. Army was led by junior (second class cadet) quarterback Rollie Stichweh. Stichweh led off the game with a touchdown drive that featured the first use of instant replay.{{cite web |url=http://www.insidesocal.com/tomhoffarth/archives/2008/12/army-navy-insta.html |title=Army–Navy, Instant Replay, Tony Verna, 45 Years Later ... |access-date=September 14, 2023 |date=December 5, 2008 |author=Gelston, Dan |agency=Associated Press |work=Los Angeles Daily News}} Army nearly won the game after another touchdown and two point conversion, Stichweh recovered the onside kick and drove the ball to the Navy 2 yard line. On 4th down and no timeouts, crowd noise prevented Stichweh from calling a play and time expired with the 21–15 final score. Staubach won the Heisman Trophy that year and was bumped off the scheduled cover of Life magazine due to the coverage of the assassination. Stichweh and Staubach would meet again in 1964 as seniors where Stichweh's Army would defeat Staubach's Navy. In that game, Calvin Huey of Navy became the first African-American to play in the series.{{cite news |last1=Hoye |first1=Walter B |title=Naval History |publisher=Detroit Tribune |date=January 2, 1965 |page=7}} Staubach went on to serve in the Navy and afterward became a Pro Football Hall of Fame quarterback with the Dallas Cowboys.

On December 10, 2016, Army defeated Navy for the first time since 2001 with a 21–17 victory, snapping its 14-game losing streak against Navy.

In 2022, Army defeated Navy by a score of 20–17 in double overtime in the first overtime game in the series' history.

Only seven games have ever been held on the campus of either academy, primarily because neither team has ever played at an on-campus stadium large enough to accommodate the large crowds that attend. The rivalry's first four games were hosted on the parade grounds of the respective academies. For all but three years since 1899, it has been held at a neutral site. Two were held on campus due to World War II travel restrictions (1942 at Navy's old Thompson Stadium and 1943 at Michie Stadium); and the 2020 game was held at Michie Stadium due to COVID-19 restrictions in Philadelphia.

Philadelphia has been the traditional home of the Army–Navy game, due to the historic nature of the city and its location approximately halfway between West Point and Annapolis. Through the 2023 meeting, 90 of the 124 games in the series have been contested in Philadelphia, including every game from 1932 to 1982 except three games that were relocated due to World War II travel restrictions. For decades, the Pennsylvania Railroad and its successors offered game-day service to all Army–Navy games in Philadelphia using a sprawling temporary station constructed each year near Municipal Stadium on the railroad's Greenwich freight yard. The service, with more than 40 trains serving as many as 30,000 attendees, was the single largest concentrated passenger rail movement in the country.{{cite book |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=6sZVp41FVOsC&pg=PA138 |title=Crossroads of Commerce: The Pennsylvania Railroad Calendar Art of Grif Teller |first=Dan |last=Cupper |year=1992 |page=138 |isbn=9780811729031 |publisher=Stackpole Books |via=Google Books}}{{cite web |url=http://michaelfroio.com/blog/tothegame |title=To The Game: A Pennsylvania Railroad Tradition |first=Michael |last=Froio |date=December 11, 2015 |access-date=August 24, 2016}}

All games contested in Philadelphia through 1935 were played at what is now Franklin Field, the home field of the University of Pennsylvania. From 1936 through 1979, all games contested in Philadelphia were held at Municipal Stadium, renamed John F. Kennedy Stadium in 1964. From 1980 to 2001, all games contested in Philadelphia took place at Veterans Stadium. Since 2003, all games contested in Philadelphia have been played at Lincoln Financial Field.

Outside of Philadelphia, the New York area has been the most frequent Army–Navy site. The Polo Grounds holds the record for most games hosted outside of Philadelphia with nine. It was the location of all New York City games through 1927. Yankee Stadium was the site of the game in 1930 and 1931. Six games have been hosted in New Jersey: 1905 at Osborne Field at Princeton University, four games at Giants Stadium from 1989 to 2002, and 2021 at MetLife Stadium.

A number of games throughout the history of the series have also been hosted in Maryland. In Baltimore, Municipal Stadium was the location of the 1924 and 1944 games. Four games were played at M&T Bank Stadium in Baltimore since 2000. In 2011 and 2024, the game was played at FedExField in Landover, Maryland.

The 2023 game was held at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, Massachusetts.

The Rose Bowl is the only site west of the Mississippi River where an Army–Navy game has been played, in 1983. Pasadena, California, home to the Rose Bowl, paid for the travel expenses of all the students and supporters of both academies, including 9,437 in all. The game was held at the Rose Bowl that year because there are a large number of military installations and servicemen and women, along with many retired military personnel, on the West Coast.Clark, N. Brooks (December 5, 1983). [https://vault.si.com/vault/1983/12/05/the-week/ "The Week"] . Sports Illustrated. Accessed December 24, 2009. The game has been held one other time in a non-East Coast venue, at Chicago's Soldier Field, which hosted the 1926 game.
