Navy Extends Winning Streak to Seven with 21-13 AAC Victory over Rice

News summary

Navy remains undefeated in the American Conference with a 4-0 record after a 21-13 victory over Rice, marking their seventh straight win and continuing their strong home performance when leading after three quarters. The game featured a defensive struggle between two option offenses, with Navy dominating the rushing attack, gaining 283 yards on the ground compared to Rice's 120. Navy quarterback Blake Horvath was instrumental with 110 rushing yards, two touchdowns, and 172 passing yards, while fullback Alex Tecza also surpassed 100 rushing yards and led in receiving. Despite Rice's valiant late fourth-quarter comeback, including a touchdown pass and a field goal, Navy's recovery of an onside kick sealed the win. Rice struggled particularly in the trenches on both offense and defense, with their offensive line unable to contain Navy's front, resulting in limited offensive production and multiple tackles for loss. The Owls' coach acknowledged Navy's superior execution, noting the team's fight and grit despite the loss and looking ahead to their next game at home.
