Navy's Epic Drive In The Emerald Bowl An NCAA Record

ANNAPOLIS, Md.—Navy's epic 26-play, 94-yard, 14:26 drive in the Emerald Bowl victory over New Mexico is an NCAA record for number of plays in a drive and for time of possession in a drive.

In the past, the NCAA has not kept a record on either statistic but due to extensive research by the Navy Sports Information office and surveys of the other 116 Division I-A football programs it was determined that both marks were records. The NCAA is strongly considering adding both records to the official NCAA record book next year due to the research.
