Houston vs Navy Game Preview

Why Houston Will Win

NOTHING has been easy for the 2022 Houston Cougars.

This was supposed to be the best of the Group of Five programs, but it lost a heartbreaker to Tulane, pulled off a thriller over Memphis, and every game has been crazy-wild-close.

It had a few weeks, though, to take a deep breath and rest for the finishing kick.

For all the problems, the run defense has generally been okay, the passing game has been great, and the offense has a way of rallying back when needed.

If the D can get into the backfield like it normally does, it should stop the Navy offense before it gets started, but …

Why Navy Will Win

The Navy offense is back.

The team might have lost to SMU, but it ran for 372 yards after rolling by Tulsa for 455. Because of it, the team is great at controlling the clock, it’s hitting the big play the few times it throws, and on the other side the run defense is terrific.

Houston will get its yards, but there’s a shot the D can’t hit the curveball and the Navy offense runs well early, takes a lead, and takes the air out of the ball in the fourth quarter, because …

What’s Going To Happen

The Cougars are great in desperation mode, but they might not easily get the ball back when needed.

It’s Houston, so this is going to be close throughout, it’ll stall for stretches, and it’ll get its shot late to pull everything out of the fire.

Too many Cougar penalties and a few other mistakes will make this a fight, but once again Clayton Tune will do what he needs to.

Why Houston Will Win

The Houston offense is working.

The team might have had issues against a BYU team that’s on a roll, and there were way too many turnover problems in the opener against Tulane, but  QB Clayton Tune has been terrific, and the receiving corps has rolled from the start.

As explosive as the Cougars might be, they’re controlling the clock, too. They’ve held on to the ball for close to 33 minutes a game so far – Navy is cooked if it doesn’t dominate the clock and the tempo.

Navy is starting to play better, but the defense is getting rolled by everyone’s ground game – the Cougars can move on the ground, too. But …

Why Navy Will Win

Navy’s ground attack is starting to work now.

The bad performance against BYU to kick things off is a distant memory, and  the loss to Air Force was ugly. However, the running game worked against everyone else.

In three of the last four games, the Midshipmen have hit the 200-yard rushing mark. That’s good, but not special for this offense. It has been good enough, the downfield passing game leads the nation in yards per completion and should be able to take advantage of its opportunities to hit the Cougar secondary that cheats up to deal with the ground game.

– CFN Experts Picks: NFL

What’s Going To Happen

Will home field matter for Navy? Yeah, just a little bit.

However, Houston is too explosive, the passing game is too good, and the defensive front that held up well against BYU in last week’s loss won’t get ripped up by the Midshipmen. Navy will get behind, and while it was able to come back against Tulane early in the year, it won’t have the ability to come up with the big drives late.
