Navy vs. USF Prediction

I’m on the over here. I lean towards Navy but it’s hard to figure out if Navy’s going to snap out of whatever funk they’re in right now to get back on track. USF has found some offense of their own as of late and for me this just sets up as an up and down back and forth kind of Game so give me the over here.
