Trent Steelman lives up to best of Army-Navy game, even in defeat - The Washington Post

Trent Steelman lives up to best of Army-Navy game, even in defeat - The Washington Post:

 "One of the first to find the Black Knights senior quarterback was Navy Coach Ken Niumatalolo, who told him: “You’re as tough as any player I’ve ever competed with or against. I’m proud of you.”"

A glimpse of what makes the Army Navy game so special. In the 1950s most players and games were like this, however, before the corporate buyout of universities, before big TV payoffs and designer uniforms. Back when football was a sport.
