No. 19 Notre Dame Knows How Dangerous Navy Is

SOUTH BEND, Ind. (AP) ― No one on No. 19 Notre Dame needs convincing about how tough Navy is to play.

The Fighting Irish (6-2) remember how the Midshipmen last season recovered two onside kicks and scored two touchdowns in the final 99 seconds, causing a scare before the Irish held on for a 27-21 victory. A season earlier, Navy beat Notre Dame 46-44 in three overtimes to end a 43-game losing streak to the Irish.

Notre Dame center Eric Olsen says that game was the low point of his career.

The Midshipmen (6-3) say the memory of ending the NCAA-record longest losing streak to a single opponent gives them confidence. Cornerback Blake Carter says the Midshipmen know they can beat the Irish.
