GW vs Navy Game Thread

GW starts the season with Navy.   

Last year Navy had a KenPom of  142.  

This year Navy has a KenPom prediction of 274 so good chance to start the year with a victory.  Opening games tend to be a bit choppy.  

Predicted GW Starting 5?

Line prediction?

Does GW start the new season with a victory opening night?

Re: GW vs Navy Game Thread

This game will actually be part of an opening night Doubleheader with the Women tipping off at 5pm and Men slated for a 7:30 tip time

42nd matchup of GW vs Navy, the last game was in 2023, we won 79-77 in OT 

GW lost the opening game of the 2020/21 season to Navy, a 78-71 loss. 

Navy won 26 games last year under 1st year Coach Jon Perry, including 17-1 in league play.   

They finished the year with a competitive 82-72 game at #1 NIT seed Wake Forest on the road.

To be fair, Navy is usually much better than those teams.

Hopefully we play as physically as we did against Georgetown.
