Five U.S. Army All-American Bowl Selection Tour teams are traveling a combined 30,000 miles across the country from late September to mid-December to announce all 90 players and 125 marching band members invited to the game, which will be televised live on NBC at 1 p.m. from the Alamodome in San Antonio, Texas on Jan. 9, 2016.
