The Navy rushing attack has been incredible this season lead by Quarterback Ricky Dobbs. Dobbs finished the season with 860 yards and an impressive 13 touchdowns.
Fullback Alexander Teich also had over 800 yards rushing.
The Navy running game was fifth in the nation averaging an impressive 288.9 yards per game. This can be a key factor in tonight’s game.
San Diego State’s rushing attack ranked 63rd in the nation with just over 150 yards per game.
Despite the weaker rush offense, San Diego State’s running back Ronnie Hillman did have a monster season with 1,304 yards and 14 touchdowns with a long run of 93 yards.
Slowing down Hillman will be tough for the Navy defense but Navy’s backs might be too much for San Diego State to handle.
