Navy is 5-5 and has a shot at a bowl with two games left. They've been fighting hard to have a winning season, winning four of the last six. That included a 31-6 rout of Alabama-Birmingham as an underdog and they come off a 10-0 shutout of East Carolina. They also lost to Memphis, 27-24, as a +11.5 underdog. The rushing offense is 14th in the nation averaging 197.6 yards per game. Despite a 7-game winning streak, SMU's defense has been wearing down. Three games ago, they squeezed by Rice, 36-31, as a 13-point favorite. Last week, the Mustangs topped Memphis, 38-34, as double-digit chalk allowing 464 yards in a game that was tied 28-28 in the fourth. In last year's meeting, SMU beat Navy at home, 40-34 but gave up 510 yards, including 372 rushing. The visitors are playing well and are more than capable of pulling the upset. Play Navy on the moneyline.

Premium Picks
SMU at Navy
Navy managed to score 34 points while beating Central Florida as a 14.5-point underdog last week, but this isn't the high-scoring Navy offense of past seasons as it scored only a combined 30 points its first three games this season and 13 points its final three games in 2020. The Midshipmen characteristically had only 58 passing yards and 348 on the ground against UCF. Navy had gone UNDER four of its previous six games, and this week's posted total is the highest in any of its games so far this year. SMU stayed UNDER in its 41-17 victory over South Florida for its third UNDER in five games this season as the Bulls were held to 3.0 yards per carry. The UNDER is 10-4 in SMU's past 14 October games, and the Mustangs have stayed UNDER in five of their past six games after a win by at least 20 points. Also, Navy has gone UNDER four of five following a win. Go with the UNDER for a Max Play.
