Charlotte vs. Navy picks and predictions

Prediction

Navy 39, Charlotte 20

Moneyline

PASS.

I’ve got Navy (-750) taking care of business at home Saturday afternoon, but I’m not betting 7 1/2 units to win 1 back. I’ll take my bet to the spread.

Against the spread

BET NAVY -16.5 (-115).

Navy has been dominant in October, winning each of its last 13 games as a home favorite against non-ranked teams. Meanwhile, Charlotte has lost 3 of its last 4 road games and struggles defensively, ranking 117th in total defense and 101st in scoring defense. While Charlotte has a solid record of covering as a double-digit underdog, the matchup here is a challenge. Navy’s offense, ranking 2nd in rushing and 5th in scoring, should exploit Charlotte’s weaknesses. Additionally, Navy has covered the spread in 4 straight games and has been strong early, winning the first quarter in 3 of its last 4 home games and leading at halftime in its last 5 home games. With their momentum, Navy is in a great position to dominate and improve to 6-0.

Over/Under

BET OVER 56.5 (-105).

Navy’s offense has been firing on all cylinders, averaging over 40 points per game and going Over the total in all 5 of their games this season. Charlotte has also seen high-scoring contests, going Over in four of their last 5 games, including a 55-point outburst last week. Additionally, seven of Navy’s last 8 October home games against non-ranked opponents and 4 of Charlotte’s last 5 games as a road underdog have surpassed the points line. This matchup has all the makings of a shootout.
