Re: Air Force

Man, the Air Force basketball fan must be pumped! Of course I am! And on the NM and MW forum they are all over the "poor officiating. And the fouls? AF had half our points (38) in the paint so we were going to the glass with no fouls being called. Not bad for a struggling young team with no seniors...

Re: AF start time

AF fan here. Will be an interesting matchup and an uphill battle for my Falcons. Will be interesting to see how you use your height as you sometime start small. Osobor will be a load for us to contend with either way. Our defense inside will be a key. Reference time, heard USU requested earlier time...

Re: UNM just pulled within 20 of AFA

AFA has some talented freshmen and sophomores in that team. They are set up pretty well for a couple years. They just need a talented big in the middle. They just need to find a talented post player who can’t be taller than 6’ 8 or weigh more than 227 lbs. This will be in an interesting game this w...

AF fan here. Here's to a good game with no injuries. Calhoun did not say that. The team IS NOT looking past USU. Navy lost week one bad but had 337 rushing yards. AF held them at their home to 68 total yards. Nada on the rush after game one and Navy of course is not a passing team. AF has 5 new star...

Seriously? Outcoached by a coach that just beat you with no JC transfers, no foreign students, no red-shirts and who made excellent adjustments between both halves. I'll take that 'the day after' a win!

Tough game for both team last night and tough play on both sides of the ball.

But for us to have a chance to move up we have to first win our last two games. Currently #24 San Diego St...

Flybys would be cool but until last week we have not had any flybys for a year due to 'sequestration'. We did get the approval for F-22's flyby before the Navy game last week and will get C-130 vs NM...nothing else for the remainder of the year at this time!

It's an uphill battle for a Falcon team that are 'dogs' on all the bookies sheets, 'dogs' in the stats, 'dogs' on all the non-Air Force sports forums and they are not expected by 'anyone' to be in this game. Well, maybe that is true and we are facing a...
