DALLAS (AP) - Joe Buckley kicked a 24-yard field goal in overtime and Navy edged SMU, 38-35, Saturday night at Gerald J. Ford Stadium.
The Midshipmen (5-2) rallied from a 21-7 deficit in front of former President George W. Bush, who handled the honorary coin toss before the game.
SMU (3-3) forced overtime on Bo Levi Mitchell's 10-yard touchdown pass to Aldrick Robinson with 1:35 left, but missed a field goal try in overtime, which allowed the Midshipmen to kick for the win.
Of SMU's three losses on the year, two have come in overtime.
