TULSA, Okla. (AP) — Tai Lavatai scored a game-winning touchdown from the 1-yard line in the fourth quarter and Navy defeated Tulsa 20-17. Lavatai was 0-for-3 passing but gained 64 yards on the ground, giving him 242 rushing yards and five touchdowns in six starts. The 15-play eight-minute drive in Navy’s come-from-behind win foiled a big night by Tulsa’s Anthony Watkins, who scored the Golden Hurricanes first kickoff return for a touchdown in nearly a decade and compiled 178 yards in total offense.
