FOX Sports Betting Analyst Geoff Schwartz’s Picks:

Navy is outstanding this season and is on its way to 10 wins.

The Midshipmen rank 10th in the sport in net yards per play while ranking fourth in points per drive. They’ve moved away a bit from their traditional attack of run, run and run. Instead, they’re throwing the ball a little more this season.

They have already completed 44 pass attempts this year, with Horvath completing 30 of them. Navy is a good team playing against a bad Air Force team. And calling the Air Force bad might be too kind.

The Falcons are 0-4 straight up (SU) and against the spread (ATS) and cannot cover the spread by 13 points against FBS teams. Air Force ranks 129th in points per drive on offense and isn’t much better on defense.

I like Navy to win this game and report.

PICK: Navy (-10) wins by more than 10 points
