Navy Outlasts Tulsa to Gain Control of the West, 42-40

Follow @American_FB

ANNAPOLIS, Md. -- Navy quarterback Will Worth ran for 122 yards and scored three touchdowns and the Midshipmen took control of the American Athletic Conference's West Division with a 42-40 victory over Tulsa on Saturday.

Navy (7-2, 5-1) is now in the driver's seat to earn a spot, and possibly host, the AAC championship game on Dec. 3. The Midshipmen have won 15 consecutive games at home -- the second-longest home streak in the nation behind Clemson, which has won 20 straight.

Worth, who also threw for a score, has a touchdown in all nine games this season, tying Chris McCoy (1995-97) for the second-longest streak in school history.
