Navy is 1-5 ATS in their last 6 home games and 1-4 ATS in their last 5 home games against a team with a losing road record while the over is 9-2-1 in their last 12 home games.
Pick
I’m leaning towards Army and the points here. Both teams have been solid to this point in the season and this is a true rivalry matchup, so often, you can throw trends and some stats out the window. That being said, both are fairly balanced on both ends of the floor and head-to-head, the road team’s won the last four meetings outright as the underdog in this matchup. Not sure we make it five straight wins here, but I think at worst we get a cover. Give me the Black Knights and the points.
