For Navy, the best defense is a good offense


iconIn their game against New Mexico, Naval Academy had a 14 minute drive that lasted almost the entire 4th quarter. In what has to be one of the most incredible football oddities I've ever heard of, Navy got the ball with 2 minutes left in the 3rd quarter, drove from their own 1 yard line all the way to the New Mexico 4 yard line, and kicked a field goal with 2 minutes 15 seconds left in the 4th.

CNN has the play by play:
