In case you didn’t know, the Midshipmen feature the triple-option and a great deal of misdirection. For their offense to succeed, they must have highly intelligent players in all facets of their offense.
With this team particularly, they definitely have the intelligence part down and the experience to go with it.
Navy has been a powerhouse when it comes to their rushing attack. They ranked fourth in the Football Bowl Subdivision in rushing yards (4342) and rushing touchdowns (61).
Starting Offense:
QB Zach Abey
FB Chris High
Z-WR Tyler Carmona
X-WR Brandon Colon
LT Jake Hawk
RG Evan Martin
RT Andrew Wood
Quarterback
During the 2016 season, Abey played in five games, starting in two. His first career start came against Army. He went 6-for-10, passing for 89 yards, throwing two interceptions, while rushing for 73 yards and two touchdowns. In his second start, Abey fared much better. He went 7-for-12, passing for 159 yards with one touchdown, zero interceptions, all while rushing for 114 yards and two touchdowns against Louisiana Tech in the Armed Forces Bowl. Abey has a great deal of talent and he proved that in his last start. The key is being able to carry that into his first full season as the starter.
