I heard someone say once (paraphrasing here) "Multiflag on Blood Gulch with your friends is what makes Halo, Halo." I GUARANTEE that more people agree with that sentiment than "Getting a 50 in MLG is what makes Halo, Halo." - Oboewan42

Edit: though , if Covennant didn't get airsupport and the Marines were well supplied and the numbers were more or less even they could well win, how ever that was rarely the case.
Right, because the UNSC doesn't have air support, not counting their Longswords, Falcons, and Hornets. Only in space, is where the Covenant reign; aka the only place that mattered in this war.
Technically the Covenant owned the ground as well then. Their cruisers could enter atmosphere undetected, or obliterate anything that would try to stop them.
As far as ground engagements go, Covenant always win simply because Human "Victories" come at high costs.
You lose a frigate, 6 tanks, and a detachment of marines; they lose a couple tanks, maybe a cruiser, and thousands of troops - all of which are quickly replaced.
