Navy looks to Staubach aid in Notre Dame clash
Navy relies on an improved Roger Staubach to upset undefeated Notre Dame in Philadelphia. Staubach is at about 85 percent after an ankle injury, with teammates sidelined by injuries. Coach Wayne Hardin says Navy must play above itself and hope for good bounces as miscues and drops have hurt their 2 3 1 record. Notre Dame coach Ara Parseghian notes that Staubach's scrambling lack limits Navy's attack.
