Navy vs George Washington Prediction

In this Navy vs George Washington Prediction, George Washington is coming as -16 home favorites. George Washington is projected as #76 for the upcoming College Basketball Season. With a revamped roster featuring several experienced transfers, the Revolutionaries are aiming to build on last season’s postseason progress and establish themselves as contenders in the Atlantic 10. Navy is projected as #271 for the upcoming College Basketball Season. After an impressive campaign last year, the Midshipmen face a tougher challenge following significant roster losses, with developing their younger players being key to remaining competitive in the Patriot League. The line is still overreacting towards Navy’s roster changes, who are 3-1 against the spread in their four head-to-head meetings against GW and were excellent against the spread last season with a 21-11 ATS record. Even if George Washington wins, the line is too big, so I will grab the +16 points with Navy in this one.
