ANNAPOLIS, Md. – Entering Saturday, the University of Cincinnati football team was the only team in the FBS to win all of its games by double digits.
Well, not anymore.
Navy scored 10 unanswered points in the fourth quarter and recovered an onside kick with less than a minute to play, but the No. 2/3-ranked (Associated Press/Coaches) Bearcats survived the Midshipmen rally and escaped with a 27-20 win to keep all of its championship hopes alive.
Up next: Cincinnati (7-0, 3-0 American Athletic Conference) will be back on the road Oct. 30 to face Tulane (1-6, 0-3).
