FORT WORTH, Texas — If only Michael Jackson could have been around for the Lockheed Martin Armed Forces Bowl — because it was a thriller.

The Louisiana Tech football team defeated No. 25 Navy in a shootout, 48-45.

Both teams combined for more than 1,000 yards of offense as the game went back and forth, making it clear that whichever team had the ball last looked destined to win.

Tech turned out to be that team as it orchestrated a nine play, 70-yard game-winning drive which took 3:40 off the clock.
