Navy coach Paul Johnson was joking with his kicker, senior Joey Bullen, before yesterday's Army-Navy game about missing all but one of the kicks he was trying from 50 to 52 yards.</p>

<p>But when slotback Reggie Campbell returned a punt to the Army 34-yard line and left one second on the clock, Johnson decided to give his kicker a chance to make a 51-yard field goal....

The Army-Navy rivalry doesn't exist in the Campbell family, at least not in the way you'd think it would. After all, Reggie, the third-oldest child and youngest son, is the man of the hour for Navy - and his older brother, Tony Martin, is part of an Army unit serving in Iraq.</p>

<p>That'll make for some good ribbing the next time they talk, right? A little chest-thumping by the younger, the hero at M&T Bank Stadium, with his two touchdowns and 227 all-purpose yards in his final Army-Navy game, and his cameo as leader of the alma mater?...

In the end, senior slotback Reggie Campbell was standing on a platform, a baton in his hand, leading the Navy band and smiling, as men and women sang their alma mater after the Midshipmen's 38-3 victory yesterday over Army.</p>

<p>It was the most fitting place Campbell could have been. After all, he had led the band all day long on the football field, playing a major role in Navy's unprecedented sixth straight victory over its archrival before an announced 70,610 at M&T Bank Stadium....

All of the bounces went Navy’s way Saturday. Even as Navy’s offense sputtered, its defense and special teams came through with a number of key plays as the Midshipmen won for a school-record sixth straight times against the Black Knights of Army, 38-3, in front of 71,610 fans at M&T Bank Stadium in Baltimore. </p>

<p>Navy slotback Reggie Campbell had a 98-yard kickoff return for a touchdown, the defense recovered two fumbles and kicker Joey Bullen connected on a career-long 51-yard field goal as the Midshipmen (8-4) defeated the Black Knights (3-9) for a series record sixth straight time. Navy now leads the all-time series 52-49-7. The Midshipmen have also won the Commander-in-Chief’s Trophy – the round-robin competition between Navy, Army and Air Force – for a fifth straight year. </p>

<p>“I’m really proud of our football team,” Navy coach Paul Johnson said. “Today they’ve accomplished something that’s never been done in the history of the Army-Navy series to win six games in a row. I thought we played hard, played our best game of the season defensively without question and on special teams as well. We got some break early and took advantage of them and put the game out of reach in the second half....

NFL players often describe a game as “a war.” They talk about “going into battle” with their teammates, who they say are the kind of guys they’d want beside them in a foxhole.</p>

<p>But, for them, it’s just talk, mere words. </p>

<p>For the young men who play football for Army and Navy, combat is a fact of the military life awaiting them after graduation....

Navy made sure it was another black Army-Navy Day for the Black Knights yesterday.</p>

<p>Forget all of the cliches about these archrivals being able to toss out the records when they tangle each December. Navy's 38-3 victory was a plain-and-simple mismatch.</p>

<p>And, frankly, this series hasn't looked like much of a "rivalry" at all the past six seasons....

Some fans may choose to remember this Navy football season as the one that saw the defense get shredded by teams such as Delaware and North Texas.</p>

<p>However, others may remember it as the year the defense played arguably its two best games against rivals Air Force and Army.</p>

<p>Navy shut out Air Force in the fourth quarter in the Sept. 29 come-from-behind win, while yesterday's effort against Army was the fewest points Navy has given up since it shutout Tulsa in 2004....

After the final whistle of yesterday's showdown at Ravens Stadium, the players from both Army and Navy lined up in the east end zone to listen to each school's alma mater.</p>

<p>The traditional playing of Navy's Blue and Gold had an interesting twist, however, as slot back Reggie Campbell stood atop the podium at field's edge to direct the Navy Drum and Bugle Corps.</p>

<p>"I really had no idea what I was doing, but there was a girl down below showing me what to do," Campbell said. "It was a big honor to be asked to get up there."...

First, word filtered back that Army free safety Jordan Murray had threatened to break the leg of Navy fullback Adam Ballard.</p>

<p>Then came reports that Army head coach Stan Brock had stated in his weekly press conference that his seniors would be able to say they beat Navy in 2007.</p>

<p>Ballard was already annoyed when he walked onto the field at M&T Bank Stadium for the 108th Army-Navy game. His anger only increased during Navy's first offensive series....
