SAN DIEGO -- San Diego State's 35-14 win over Navy in the Poinsettia Bowl, viewed Thursday by an ESPN audience and some 48,000 at Qualcomm Stadium, was the school's first bowl victory since a win over Boston University in the 1969 Pasadena Bowl.
Capping a breakthrough year under coach Brady Hoke, SDSU (9-4) thrived with the same playmakers who led it to its first winning season and bowl appearance since 1998.
Navy (9-4) never led in its bid for a fifth victory against a bowl team this year.
Three SDSU players who have NFL potential -- receiver Vincent Brown, quarterback Ryan Lindley and running back Ronnie Hillman -- powered a wide-open offense that piled up 21 points and 302 yards in the first half.
