Navy got its first win under new head coach Brian Newberry as the Midshipmen defeated Wagner 24-0 while holding the FCS school to only 227 yards while Navy gained 408 total yards, including 245 yards rushing. QB Tai Lavatai threw for 161 yards and a touchdown and ran for 65 yards as he was the majority of the Navy offense. Newberry is the former defensive coordinator for the Midshipmen and they return nine defensive starters. Navy has gone UNDER its first two games, including by 25.5 points against Wagner. The Midshipmen are 8-1 UNDER their past nine as road underdogs. Memphis went UNDER by 17 points while defeating Arkansas State 37-3 although the Red Wolves appear to be one of the worst teams in the country as they were annihilated 73-0 by Oklahoma the week before. Memphis' season opener was against Bethune-Cookman so Navy actually will be its toughest test yet. The Tigers have gone UNDER five of their past six games and they lost their top five receivers from last year. Take Navy and the UNDER.

Pro Picks
Navy at Memphis
Navy has another speedy ground attack, averaging 219 yards rushing behind option QB Tai Lavatai and fullbacks Isaac Ruoss (233 yards) and James Harris II (214 yards). The Midshipmen have scored 34 and 24 points the last two weeks against Central Florida and then-No. 24 ranked SMU. They covered three straight close games as a double-digit dog each time, losing 31-24 to SMU, 28-20 at Houston as a +20 dog, and a 34-30 upset of UCF as a +15.5 underdog. Navy is 22-8 ATS after getting less than 275 total yards in the last game, plus 27-11 ATS on the road against teams that allow 31 points per game. Memphis is a big favorite, but it has lost three in a row, twice as chalk of -3 and -11. They're winless in AAC action and are allowing an average of 35.8 points the last five games. Memphis is 2-9 ATS when playing with six or fewer days of rest, and Navy is 26-16 ATS as a road underdog. Play Navy.
