The 2006 edition to the Meineke Car Care Bowl featured the Navy Midshipmen, and the Boston College Eagles.

Boston College got on the board first following a 2 yard touchdown run by quarterback Matt Ryan. The extra point failed, and Boston College led 6-0. Navy quarterback, Kaipo-Noa Kaheaku-Enhada, known as a running quarterback, surprised BC by throwing a 31 yard touchdown pass to wide receiver Tyree Barnes, to put Navy on top 7-6.

In the second quarter, Navy used it's powerful option running attack, and Zerbin Singleton plowed 5 yards for a touchdown to increase Navy's lead to 14-6. Running back Brian Toal answered for Boston College with a 1 yard touchdown run to make it 14-13. Kaheaku-Enhada once again threw a touchdown pass, this one covering 24 yards to Jason Tomlinson to increase Navy's lead to 21-13. With no time left in the half, kicker Steve Aponavicius drilled a 26 yard field goal, to cut the lead to 21-16.

In the third quarter, Navy was poised to score a touchdown, but BC's defense held strong, and forced a field goal. Matthew Harmon connected on the 22 yard field goal to extend Navy's lead to 24-16. With 7:36 left in the fourth quarter, Matt Ryan found tight end Ryan Purvis for a 25 yard touchdown pass. The 2 point conversion attempt failed, and Navy still led 24-22.

Navy had the ball, with 1:43 left in the game, and Boston College had no time outs left. On the next play, Reggie Campbell fumbled an option pitch, that was recovered by BC's Jolonn Dunbar at the Navy 40 yard line. Matt Ryan threw a 16 yard pass to Ryan Purvis to get BC into field goal range. Steve Aponavicius drilled a 37 yard field goal as time expired to give Boston College the 25-24 win. The win extended BC's streak of consecutive bowl wins to 7.
