I think they are favored because we are playing in Annapolis. If we were playing at Ford, I have a feeling we might be favored given they are not playing all that well this season.

Isn't the home team always worth 3 points regardless?

I'm not getting too worried about the Navy matchup. I know they've had our number the last few years but Dobbs stats do not look overly impressive thus far. 2.8 yards per carry and less than a 50% comp %. And it's not like they've played the toughest of defenses thus far either, with Air Force maybe being the toughest. Given our D's performance last night in only allowing 18 to Tulsa, I think we can pull out a W.

Our run defense has gotten a lot better, it's our secondary I'm worried about, and Dobbs isn't throwing all that particularly well. It should be a good game.

Im glad we are an underdog this game...these guys need to come out hungry from the opening kickoff....they have been starting out too slow this season....methinks from reading their press clippings..Get after it Mustangs!!

No way SMU beats Navy in Annapolis. If the game was at Ford, maybe. Usually the home stadium is worth about seven. If Navy was not running the Flex Bone, we would have a much better chance.

Two years ago, the weather was a bigger factor than the location of the field. Let's hope for clear skies and no wind this time. Also, now our quarterback is not a freshman with little experience.
