Navy Looks to Bounce Back From First Loss
The Navy Midshipmen suffered their first loss of the 2024 college football season last week, when they were blown out by the Notre Dame Fighting Irish. While that loss knocked Navy out of the top-25 nationally, the silver lining is that it was not a conference game, meaning that Navy is still unbeaten in American Athletic Conference competition in 2024. Navy's offense should have a better chance to play to their usual standard against a Rice team that does not have the physicality in the trenches that Notre Dame does.
Rice Hoping to Snap Losing Streak
Rice has been struggling mightily this season, going 2-6 overall and 1-3 in AAC play. They have lost two straight games coming into this Navy vs Rice matchup, with the offense of the Owls being a huge reason for their struggles. Rice has scored just 10 points in each of their last two games, which cost them in a winnable game against UConn where their defense held the Huskies to just 17 points. If Rice can't put up bigger offensive numbers in this contest, they could get run over by a Navy team that is capable of scoring in bunches.
Navy vs Rice Best Bet
Saturday's Navy vs Rice matchup is a great bounce back spot for the Midshipmen after their loss to Notre Dame last week. Look for the Naval Academy to pick things back up offensively now that they are likely to hold the physicality advantage once again. That should lead to Navy covering the spread while Rice will lose this game and with it their chance at becoming bowl eligible for the 2024 season.
