Final: Navy 23, Notre Dame 21

Posted: November 7, 7:36 pm | (permalink) | (0 comments)

    Navy pulled it off, upsetting 19th-ranked Notre Dame for the second time in two trips to South Bend. The Midshipmen took a 14-0 halftime lead and never trailed in improving to 7-3 and becoming bowl eligible. Fullback Vince Murray rushed for 158 yards and a touchdown while quarterback Ricky Dobbs ran for 102 yards and a touchdown.

   Cornerback Blake Carter and outside linebacker Ram Vela both notched nine tackles for the Navy defense, which forced three turnovers and repeatedly denied Notre Dame in the red zone. The Fighting Irish came away with zero points on five trips inside the visitors' 25-yard line.
