Week 5 Preview: Air Force versus Colorado State


Saturday, September 29
2:00 PM Colorado State at Air Force:

This is a Mountain West Conference matchup between the Colorado State Rams and the Air Force Falcons. This is a matchup between two teams that are struggling big-time and need wins. Air Force has lost their last two games after forgetting how to tackle in giving up 31 and 38 points in the two recent losses. The running game is there like always but until the defensive deficiencies are addressed, the Falcons will struggle. Colorado State started the season great with a win over Colorado in the season opener but have struggled to three straight losses with all three being by double digits. The low point was a 22-7 loss to FCS defending champion North Dakota State in which NDSU imposed their will on the Rams for the entire game. This is the 51st overall meeting between the two schools with Air Force holding a 30-19-1 overall series lead. The Air Force Falcons are the better team and should be able to take care of Colorado State as long as the defensive issues have been addressed. Expect Air Force to struggle once again but just outscore the Rams. Air Force 33-21.
