  • And from only about 25 miles away, in Annapolis, the midshipmen of Navy, here they come.

  • The Super Hornet flyover.

  • And we're getting closer to kickoff.

  • Bored up in the gun, from the 47-yard line.

  • Again wants to throw a screen to the right, got it, to Teske, Teske with a convoy in front.

  • Big play all the way down, inside the 20-yard line.

  • Caleb Fortner brought him down, and well-designed and perfectly executed, Garrett.

  • So Drew Proddick says, I know me, and I'm the type of guy that likes to take chances.

  • Here it is, a screen pass on third and eight, beautifully set up on the play.

  • And Hoke Smith right there takes a block on the play downfield, throwing at the legs of the linemen.

  • And a player, that one could have sprung the whole way.

  • Over that, airborne, and in again, touchdown.

  • It looks like he was in, and it looks like he rebounded in after the first penetration.

  • What a drive, 12 plays for this Navy offense.

  • Udo hit immediately, dropped for a two-yard loss.

  • And it's Landon Robinson, the nose tackle.

  • One of the things P.J.

  • Vogel told us in our interview with him, is he felt that they did not attack enough on defense last year.

  • They played too static, gave them too much time to get their play started.

  • Daly wants to throw, waiting long, and throwing an interception.

  • Waited too long, and DeSean Peel is there with a pick.

  • Navy has only turned the ball over this year five times.

  • Only one interception in 95 pass attempts coming into this game.

  • There's number two.

  • Pretty good protection this time.

  • Have the opportunity to get there, good look, nice pocket, come back.

  • Just, I don't know, it does not seem to be on the same page that time.

  • Casey Reynolds is going long, Brady is throwing the comeback.

  • That's just a miscommunication, causes the interception.

  • Peel's fifth interception of the season has Navy in business when we come back.

  • Yet guards pulling one way and the ball going the other.

  • Harbaugh wants to throw a play action, pumps once, now decides to keep it.

  • Found an avenue, got a first down and a bunch more.

  • Out of bounds easily with a first down, and mobbed by the sideline teammates.

  • Remember our game a year ago, Xavier Erlein started the game in quarterback, he was the speed guy.

  • Ty Lavitae came in as the quarterback.

  • I think Blake Horvath is a combination of both of those guys.

  • Pretty fast, good thrower, kind of does both of what Erlein and Lavitae did a year ago.

  • Lavitae came in the second half and almost pulled that game out with his passing.

  • Army thinking about a blitz off the corner.

  • And Horvath lobs one, wide open touchdown.

  • Brandon Chapman.

  • Got the wheel, look at a lot of eye candy.

  • Coming back the other way, what a first down call by Drew Cronick, the offensive coordinator for Mercer, head coach a year ago.

  • How beautiful is this?

  • First the motion, and then the wheel down the sideline with a little play action.

  • Watch this, this is how you dial up a play.

  • That is as nice as you can draw it, give that one.

  • To the O.C.

  • Second down and seven.

  • Daly, a run all the way, trying to spin away, dropped for a loss of a yard.

  • And again, it's Justin Reed, nice play on the defensive front.

  • Yeah, he was one of the starters last year and he is a special player.

  • Horvath will keep it, first down, a bunch more, Blake Horvath.

  • Here he goes, foot race into the secondary, all the way down to the 32 yard line.

  • K.C.

  • Larkin, saved a touchdown there.

  • And in that time, DeDomenico, number six, is the only guy that had a chance on the play.

  • Right side of the screen, one on one, can't make the tackle. 38 yard pickup.

  • Five yards, the first penalty of the game, by the way.

  • Daly, down the middle, could have been picked off again, incomplete.

  • They're looking for a flag, they don't get one.

  • I think that was a smart play by Brian Newberry, not taking the 10 second runoff, because third and long, he goes, we're going to get the ball back if we play good defense.

  • One on one route, to the outside, it's just a post route.

  • Throws it hard, but a little high, and if it would have been perfect, I think Andrew Duhart would have got that one.

  • And so Army's going to have to punch.

  • Something they don't do a lot of, as I mentioned earlier.

  • This one will be returned by Isaiah Bryant from the goal line.

  • Bryant, got a seam on the far sideline.

  • Nice return.

  • Big play.

  • The Navy special teams, and there are no flags.

  • He got to top speed pretty quick.

  • Catches that at an intense stop, and then about three steps, he's full speed.

  • And he hits the crease, runs right through an arm tackle.

  • Good thing pursuit came from the blind side, or that could have sprung for another 20 yards. 42 yard kickoff return, that sets Navy up offensively in a good spot.

  • Straight drop.

  • Throw is wide open complete to the guy Gary's been calling for, Hyden Wright, down the sideline.

  • This will be a touchdown.

  • Eli Hyden Wright for the score.

  • Quiet no more.

  • Donovan Platt, one on one against Hyden Wright.

  • Goes out, just a quick out for the first down.

  • Good catch, poor tackle.

  • And Hyden Wright, gets the touch.

  • Celebration in the end zone, I saw a flag late.

  • Throw is short.

  • On the end of the round, well played.

  • Great job by Kyle Jacobs.

  • Sure was.

  • He was in that Will Harper spot, he was the linebacker a year ago, along with Ramos.

  • Watch the job he does here, and also the point of attack on the block.

  • Defeated on the edge that time.

  • You hold the edge, and allow the linebacker to make the field.

  • That's good defense.

  • Short the motion man.

  • Daly, goes to the end zone again, into traffic.

  • Almost picked off.

  • And Shane got a hand out of the back of the end zone.

  • Yeah, no decision here.

  • Field goal, team will go out.

  • Good coverage by this Navy secondary.

  • They had 14 interceptions coming into the game.

  • Have one into it right now.

  • They're playing pass.

  • Still bring four players.

  • Play zone behind it this time.

  • And nowhere to fit that one in.

  • Good coverage.

  • Dre Granati had a field goal earlier at 39.

  • Terrell Robinson waiting back on the other end.

  • And it's a fake.

  • And it's wide open.

  • First down, and the ball came out of the end, but Navy's got it.

  • Talk about a gutsy call.

  • Was that Landon Robinson?

  • The nose tackle.

  • The guy that can run 20 miles an hour.

  • Yes, I think that's the guy that's got it.

  • Number 96.

  • And look at him.

  • The nose tackle.

  • Wow.

  • Ball came out of the end, but it was covered by Navy.

  • Couldn't tell who it was, but he ran like a little nose tackle.

  • Holy cow, what a play.

  • Jeff Munkin went for it on fourth down.

  • Brian Newberry says, I think we should go for it.

  • Does it from a different look. 30 yards for number 96, and he's doing it in a hurry.

  • We talked about the fake punt three years ago that won the game.

  • That one was by mistake.

  • This one was called.

  • Brian Newberry was here for that game.

  • He's been here six years.

  • He was the defensive coordinator.

  • How about all those wiggles at the end of it right there?

  • He's going to juke out the D.V. at the end of that one.

  • It was Ramos that covered the loose ball at the end of the 30-yard run by Landon.

  • Horvath.

  • On the run all the way to the five-yard line.

  • Third and goal.

  • Horvath, airborne for the second time.

  • Tonight.

  • And the second time he's in.

  • Touchdown.

  • Two on the ground and one through the air.

  • And a salute to the fans in the end zone.

  • He did.

  • He did not reach the ball out, but he fell across the line.

  • No doubt. 75 yards in 10 plays.

  • Beautifully called drive.

  • Executed.

  • Horvath was brilliant on the drive.

  • The pitch to the corner and the edge.

  • Great defense.

  • Short's going to be dropped for a loss.

  • Andrew Duhart numbered that time.

  • The corner makes the play and then it's cleaned up inside.

  • This Navy defense has defended the edges all football game.

  • This time the run goes outside.

  • Duhart defeats the block.

  • And then the Navy defense comes in and makes the play.

  • Midway point in the fourth quarter.

  • Daley in trouble.

  • Got away.

  • Duhart across his body.

  • Almost intercepted.

  • Maybe he held on.

  • Bounced off.

  • Did it hit the ground or not?

  • McShan's the guy that's got it.

  • And on top of it I thought Daley was across the line of scrimmage.

  • But now we've got flags flying everywhere.

  • After the play.

  • The only thing to look at is to see if the ball originally hit the ground.

  • It did not.

  • And I think it's caught in midair by McShan on the play.

  • Wow.

  • I thought Bryson Daley was across the line of scrimmage.

  • I don't think it's going to make any difference.

  • Well I guess not.

  • No I think one foot might have been behind.

  • Just enough.

  • At any rate.

  • The tip.

  • Talk about tip drill.

  • You usually don't practice it quite that way.

  • I mean Duhart had a nice series right here.

  • He had a play to stop for the on the option play.

  • Comes and defends it.

  • Doesn't make the interception.

  • But the pursuit pops right into the hands of the Navy linebacker.

  • Horvath keeps it again.

  • Another first down.

  • A lot more.

  • Blake Horvath.

  • Open field.

  • All the way down.

  • Near the 10 yard line.

  • And the star of the show is continuing to shine.

  • Watch the beautiful ball handling on this play.

  • He fakes and then he fakes the pitch on top of it.

  • Watch the ball handling by the quarterback Blake Horvath.

  • This is beautiful.

  • Fake it.

  • Fake the left.

  • Look to the left to widen out that defense.

  • And then turn on the Jets.

  • Is he at 200?

  • That was 48 right there. 24 for 199.

  • Watch it.

  • Fake.

  • Look to the outside.

  • And quickly the subtlety and the beauty.

  • And inside Alex Teske gets blocked to finish off the end of the play.

  • First down at the 34.

  • Daly's throw is intercepted.

  • And the icing on the Navy cake right there.

  • And it's Luke Pierce.

  • Luke Pierce beat the receiver to the spot on this one.

  • It's like he knew the play.

  • Watch him anticipate the out route.

  • And just beat him to the spot.

  • Yep.

  • Makes the catch.

  • Pierce got his opportunity last year about halfway through the season.

  • Played so well.

  • Never gave the spot back.

  • Plays that boundary type outside linebacker.

  • And Daly's like oh man.

  • That'll be the last one.

  • And here comes a joyous group of midshipmen to midfield.

  • Two really good coaches.

  • How long it is for seas to sleep.

  • They sing of others true.

  • But you have never hired me.

  • To work a day or two.

  • Oh say can you see by the dawn's early light. At the twilight's last gleaming.

  • What so proudly we hailed. Sure beats the heck out of trying to plant a flag out on the field doesn't it.

  • Yeah there's too much respect for these guys.

  • The only flag they're worried about planting.

  • Is the United States of America flag anywhere they end up.

And from only about 25 miles away, in Annapolis, the midshipmen of Navy, here they come.
