Navy vs Maine Prediction 

Navy comes into this matchup with just a 3-5 record on the season, but one of those wins was against a non-D-1 team. Both of these teams are coming off of losses on Saturday and neither team is shooting the ball very well this season. I do think Maine has a pretty big advantage on defense, as Navy is allowing 74 points per game this year. Take the Black Bears here.
