Army-Navy had 2018’s best ‘GameDay’ signs, hands down

The annual meeting between Navy and Army has a uniquely load-bearing responsibility in the college football schedule. If this game is bad, then the entirety of college football’s final pre-bowl weekend is bad (unless you’re wise enough to watch FCS or other playoffs). Luckily, the game is almost always great.

So it goes with College GameDay signs as well. With only one FBS game going on, ESPN’s road show has a simple choice of destination. And just like on the field, Army and Navy fans in Philadelphia bring it.

I’m certain I laughed more at this week’s signs than I did at the entire rest of the year combined. That’s an annual thing with this game.

UCF, as it’s prone to do, countered.

Did Georgia catch a stray?

Yes. Georgia is designed to catch as many strays as possible at all times.

And as always, someone wants Bama.

A specific strain of Bama, though.
