Know your foe, Navy: Which Middies could give Notre Dame problems

The Irish hit the road this weekend as they face traditional foe Navy. It’s a game that Notre Dame should win pretty handily,

but there are still plenty of Middies that could give them issues.

. Find out below which Navy players could give the Irish problems.

You might be looking at Haywood’s position and wondering why a receiver is being highlighted

. Well, it’s not for his presence catching the ball, 10 receptions for 175 yards on the year,

it’s about his all-around impact. Haywood is second on the team in rushing yards with 406,

 although he hasn’t found the end zone this fall. Also a threat on special teams, even though that play above is from last year,

 it show’s the explosiveness that he’s capable of.

Haywood is still a player that the Middies want as many touches as possible.

Linebacker John Marshall John Marshall's 5 pass breakups today are the most by a

 Navy player since at least 2000 and is tied for the second-most in the country this year.

Joey Porter Jr. of Penn State had 6 against Purdue earlier this year.
