Bucknell vs Navy Prediction
Bucknell beat Navy a couple of weeks ago and has won three straight against the Midshipmen overall. However, Navy was competitive in that game, covered the number, and this time is at home. Navy has seen five of its eight wins come at home. Navy is coming off strong upsets over Lehigh and Army, and the Midshipmen have covered seven of their last 10 games. Bucknell has had defensive issues on the road, and it’s why the Bison have lost nine of their last 11 games away from home. We’re not being asked to lay anything crazy, and Navy is putting together a strong week. I’ll lay the bucket with Navy on Saturday.
