Thanks to freshman running back Bernard Pierce’s 41-yard touchdown run in the fourth quarter and three straight stands by the defense, the football team defeated Navy, 27-24, for its sixth straight win.

Houston sophomore defensive tackle Ed Oliver, ranked as a top-25 player in college before the season, will face the Owls on Saturday at Lincoln Financial Field.
