When preparing to play Navy, teams tend to spend the majority of their time planning how to defend the triple-option, but the Midshipmen’s defense should not be overlooked, which is something UH football head coach Dana Holgorsen has emphasized to his team.
Just like how the Navy offense gives opposing defenses formations they have never seen before, the Midshipmen’s defense presents a wide variety of challenges, making it impossible for opposing offenses to prepare for all the looks Navy will show them during a game.
“I don’t have enough time in a week to give everybody those looks,” Holgorsen said on his weekly Thursday night radio show.
