Navy vs SMU Game Preview

Why Navy Will Win

The team needed to pivot, and it did it.

Navy was going nowhere, the offense wasn’t working, the team lost to Delaware to start and couldn’t get anything working against Memphis, and now it won two of the last three with an explosion in the 53-21 win over Tulsa.

Navy can be thrown on.
