Navy 35 – Missouri 13

Congrats and well done to the Mids for their demolition of the Missouri Tigers this afternoon.  10-4 for only the third time in Navy football history too.  Have to say as someone who grew up inthe Big 8 and is a lifelong Husker fan I was pulling for Navy all the way.  Guess Mizzou just got a look at Navy’s *other* triple option… 🙂

Have to say, for a Big 12 team, Navy’s defense did one fantastic job shutting down Mizzou’s running game and the red zone D was great.  Combined with the offense’s clock-eating running game, well, the stats speak for themselves.

Well done Mids!
