The 117th Army-Navy game will feature a special guest in attendance as President-elect Donald Trump will watch the game at M&T Bank Stadium in Baltimore on Saturday.

A spokesman for Trump's transition team confirmed his appearance during a conference call with reporters and said that he will follow the traditional protocol for Presidents attending the game -- sitting on the Army side for the first half and Navy side for the second half.

Navy will be looking to extend its winning streak over Army to 15 consecutive games. The Midshipmen hold a 60-49-7 all-time advantage in the annual rivalry game first played in 1890. Both teams come into the game with winning records -- Army 6-5, Navy 9-3 -- for the first time since 2010.
