At a critical juncture of the fourth quarter, Navy had backup quarterback Garret Lewis handing the ball off to third-string fullback Mike Martin.

It wasn’t exactly the best scenario for coming from behind to beat 20th-ranked Central Florida, a talent-laden team that is clicking on all cylinders right now.

Meanwhile, the Midshipmen are handicapped personnel-wise at the moment as injuries to key players have begun to take a toll.

Starting quarterback Zach Abey went down with a head injury early in the third quarter on Saturday and that was a difficult loss to overcome.
