Morning Wrap: Navy Wins Crappily Played Poinsettia Bowl

((ht: espn.com))

If you live on the east coast and aren't a Navy fan and watched the Poinsettia Bowl game Tuesday, you have no life.

The bowl game, featuring the Midshipmen and San Diego State was perhaps one of the worst bowl games of the year.

The reason: Seven turnovers and a missed game winning field goal attempt.

Navy won the game 17-16 on an Austin Grebe 24-yard field goal with 1:20 left in the game.

But it wasn't over until the Aztecs Donnie Hageman missed a 34-yarder with :20 to go.

Navy coach Ken Niumatololo said later "I have no idea how we won the game.

The two teams combined for less than 600 yards total offense, the quarterbacks for both teams threw a combined 34 passes, completing 14 of them.
