Navy And Notre Dame Extend Rivalry
The longest continuous intersectional rivalry in college football has been extended. Navy and Notre Dame have agreed to continue their rivalry to 2026, which will be the centennial year for the series.
"Our institutional relationship with Notre Dame goes back decades," Navy Athletic Director Chet Gladchuk said. "Along with the vast mutual respect we share as two of the finest educational institutions in the nation, that same dimension of appreciation is evident on the football field.
"Continuing this traditional and classic rivalry for years to come has always been a priority for both schools."
The Irish and Midshipmen will meet in South Bend on odd years, while on even years the game will be played as Navy's home game, customarily played at regional NFL venues.
The two schools, which have played every year since 1926, will meet for the 84th time Oct. 29 in South Bend.
The 2012 game will be played Sept. 1 at Aviva Stadium in Dublin, Ireland.
