FEI Week 13: Anchors Aweigh

Four weeks ago, Notre Dame and Navy recorded one of the most remarkable stat lines of the college football season. The Midshipmen won by a final score of 28-27 in Jacksonville, Florida, on November 5. There were no turnovers in the game, the total yardage was nearly the same (370 for the Irish, 368 for the Midshipmen), and the first down totals were dead even (21 apiece). What stood out in the game was the number of possessions. Notre Dame finished the game having possessed the ball only six times, four times in the first half and only two times in the second half.
