Bill Belichick to serve as guest picker for College GameDay

Belichick is far more than just the coach of the local pro football team.

The 124th Army-Navy game will take place Saturday in Foxborough, Mass.

It'll be the first time the rivalry, played at a neutral site for almost all of its century-and-a-quarter long history, will visit Massachusetts. And College GameDay got the perfect guest picker.

Bill Belichick is more than just the head coach of the local pro football team. In many ways, the most accomplished coach in NFL history was raised by Navy football.

I'll let Peter King explain.

Much to Belichick's chagrin, Army won last year's tilt, 20-17 in double overtime, and has taken five of the last seven after Navy won annually from 2001-16. Navy leads the all-time series 62-54-7. 

A year's worth of pride or sorrow is on the line for more than just Army and Navy. America's Game will also decide the FootballScoop Man of the Year
