Navy enters 2026 with Brian Newberry openly aiming to build on last year's 11-2 season toward a conference title and College Football Playoff spot.

Navy's opener should focus more on execution than new scheme reveals, with Braxton Woodson needing to establish himself as QB1 by commanding the huddle, getting the offense into the right play, and running it cleanly.

Navy still needs to see Vic Listorti at running back and has plebe Jacob Williams unexpectedly listed as the No. 2 running back.

Navy's secondary communication is a key early warning point after first-half issues last season and with Towson receiver Cleveland Charlton bringing size and big-play ability.

Navy wants its new defensive line starters plus striker and raider rotations to pressure Towson quarterback Andrew Indorf behind an offensive line that allowed six sacks in its opener.
