We like the Navy Midshipmen @ Air Force Falcons game to stay UNDER the total on Saturday for a number of reasons. Here are some of the more important ones:

We all know that these teams love to run the ball in their unique option style offenses. That means we will see a lot of the clock being chewed in today's encounter.

Since 2014, the UNDER in all service academy games is 26-3-1. That's a trend you don't see very often.

At home this season, Air Forces have allowed an average of just 11.5 points per game.

Navy is playing a lot more aggressive this season, but look for them to go back to ground and pound in this one for most of the game.

The Midshipmen allowed just three points in the first half last game and let up in the second half a bit. Don't expect them to let up in this game as Air Force is much better than their record suggests.

When these teams have met recently, they've seen three straight UNDER's. The UNDER is also 9-2-1 since 2012 when these two teams play each other.

All signs point towards another low scoring game on Saturday.
