Navy football looking to deliver another bounce-back season: ‘This year has been completely different’

Will Navy football author an impressive bounce-back season like it did in 2019? Or will the Midshipmen suffer their third losing season since 2018?

Was last year’s 3-7 record an aberration because of the challenges of playing amid a pandemic? Or was it simply the continuation of a downward trend for the program resulting from playing in the highly competitive American Athletic Conference?

Answers to those questions will begin to come Saturday afternoon in Annapolis when Navy hosts Marshall in the season opener for both schools. The Thundering Herd, who finished 7-3 in 2020, are the preseason pick to finish atop the East Division of Conference USA.
