College Football fans react to Donald Trump claim he’s signing Army-Navy game executive order amid College Football Playoff expansion talks

Our Summary

President Donald Trump plans to sign an executive order granting the Army-Navy football game an exclusive four-hour broadcast window on the second Saturday of December, preventing interference from other college football games. Trump emphasized the importance of preserving the tradition of the game, highlighting its significance in American culture and its representation of patriotism and honor. This move comes amid discussions about expanding the College Football Playoff to 24 teams, which could shift the Army-Navy game to the first Saturday in December. The Army-Navy rivalry started in 1890, with the Navy leading the series. CBS, which has broadcasted the game since 1996, holds the rights until 2038. The executive order has sparked mixed reactions, with some fans questioning the federal government's involvement in scheduling college football games.
