Navy isn't known for throwing the ball — they're a team that runs the option.

But when the Midshipmen do throw it, they can do some spectacular things. Take, for instance, Jamir Tillman's catch against ECU Saturday.

Navy was up big in the third quarter, but the Midshipmen didn't leave any doubt who was in control of the game when Tillman laid out to make this catch.

Is this the catch of the year in college football? That's hard to say, but it is certainly in contention without much time left in the campaign.

Not bad for a team that would rather keep the ball on the ground.
