Associated Press  

The AP Top 25 college football poll is back every week throughout the season! Our plan is to win out at USF, and then no matter where we end up, we’ve got to put the ball down and play.” Mikey Keene replaced quarterback John Rhys Plumlee in the second half and immediately led the Knights to their only touchdown of the game. “I feel like if we get off to a fast start, we’re a hard team to beat, just the nature of our offense and the way our defense is playing,” Navy coach Ken Niumatalolo said. Plumlee, a senior who had led UCF’s ninth-ranked offense for most of the season, completed 11 of 18 passes for 107 yards and threw a long interception on the final play of the half. “Great defensive effort.” TAKEAWAYS Navy: Three weeks ahead of its 123rd showdown with Army, the Midshipmen gained a huge measure of respect late in a losing season.. Navy is now 8-1 in games without completing a pass in the Niumatolo era.. Navy’s previous win, against Temple on Oct. 29, was also accomplished without a completion.
