Reynolds ties NCAA record for rushing touchdowns as Navy beats South Florida, 29-17

Navy quarterback Keenan Reynolds tied the NCAA record for rushing touchdowns, and did so in dramatic fashion on Saturday.

Reynolds fought his way into the end zone from 1-yard out to score the clinching touchdown with 1:49 remaining in the game to lift Navy to a 29-17 victory over South Florida.

Facing fourth-and-goal from the 1, head coach Ken Niumatalolo had a tough decision to make. A touchdown put the game away while a field goal forced South Florida to score a touchdown and two-point conversion to tie the score.

Niumatalolo elected to go for it and Reynolds made him look good, faking a handoff to fullback Chris Swain and following him into the end zone.
