Apologies if I missed a discussion on this - but what an amazing game!
1. The entire 2nd half contained exactly 5 possessions - 3 Navy and 2 Notre Dame.
2. On Navy's last 2 possessions, a 9:00 TD drive that spanned 2/3 of a quarter, and a 7:28 drive that closed the game out, they converted four 3rd downs and four 4th downs - 8/8.
3. Twice they went for it on 4th down in their own territory with the game on the line - and converted.
That's just gutsy play calling followed by amazing execution to go 4/4 on 4th downs with the game on the line. They just would not to let anything other than their offense close the game out. Go Mids!
