Pick by FOX Sports Betting Analyst Geoff Schwartz:
Navy is excellent this season and on pace for 10 wins.
The Midshipmen rank 10th in the sport in net yards per play, while being fourth in points per drive. They’ve somewhat moved away from their traditional offense of running, running and running some more. Instead, they’re throwing the ball a little more this season.
They already have 44 pass attempts this year, and Horvath has completed 30 of them. Navy is a good squad and it’s playing a bad Air Force team. And calling Air Force bad might be being too nice.
The Falcons are 0-4 straight up (SU) and against the spread (ATS), failing to cover the spread against FBS teams by 13 points. Air Force is 129th in points per drive on offense and not much better on defense.
I like Navy to win and cover this game.
PICK: Navy (-10) to win by more than 10 points
