Navy 35, Delaware 18 - Ricky Dobbs ran for five touchdowns, moving within one of tying the single-season NCAA record for a quarterback, to lead the Midshipmen over the Blue Hens in Annapolis, Md.

Dobbs leads the nation with 22 touchdowns and needs one more rushing score to tie the record held by Florida's Tim Tebow (2007) and Air Force's Chance Harridge (2002).

Ursinus quarterback Justin Decristofaro tossed three touchdown passes, and Teddy Conrad ran for two more.

However, the Bears' title hopes ended when Johns Hopkins beat McDaniel.

Johns Hopkins 38, McDaniel 14 - Mike Milano returned an interception 42 yards for a touchdown, and Matt Cahill reached the end zone on an 85-yard kickoff return as the Blue Jays (8-2, 7-1 Centennial) routed the Green Terror (5-5, 3-5) in Westminster, Md., to win the conference title and Division III postseason bid.

Albright 44, Lebanon Valley 43 - The Lions (9-1, 6-1 MAC) kept their hopes for an NCAA playoff bid alive in Reading, prevailing in double overtime against the Flying Dutchmen (8-2, 5-2) after Albright's Dave Harig knocked away Caleb Fick's pass to Matt Donley.

Albright quarterback Tanner Kelly left the game on a first-drive sack by Will Keylor. However, backup Patrick Subers threw for 362 yards and five touchdowns, and ran for 53 more yards.

Rowan 39, College of New Jersey 0 - Quarterback Frank Wilczynski accounted for 378 yards of total offense and five touchdowns with two scoring passes and three runs for the Profs (7-3, 6-3 New Jersey Athletic Conference), who shut out the Lions (4-6, 3-6) in Glassboro.
