In the single meeting between these two football programs in 1979, Navy took down the Fighting Illini in an intense 13-12 victory. Will the #5 Illinois Fighting Illini be able to redeem their teammates of old against the Midshipmen in this CFP semifinal matchup?
Have you wondered what the College Football Playoff would look like if expanded to 12 teams? We’ve modified NCAA14 to do just that for us, and we’ve simulated another season of our Dynasty mode to the postseason. Here are the semifinals of another simulated season with new conference alignments! Below are the seeds of the teams that made it to this round:
5. Illinois (24-20 W vs #4 Florida)
6. Pitt (24-10 W vs #3 Ohio St)
7. Texas (6-3 W vs #2 Georgia)
9. Navy (13-12 W vs #1 Notre Dame)
