AF WINS Per the article this was the first time this season that the Falcons started the same five linemen for more than two consecutive games. It showed. Good summary by Brent. I still question some of the play calling but overall very impressed with the offense last night. Now if a young man can make a complete pass to an open player 10 yards down the field like he missed several times we would score 50 a game. https://gazette.com/sports/air-force-football-snaps-7-game-losing-streak-with-dominant-ground-game-against-fresno-state/article_cb2c3c30-9f29-11ef-8709-7b6c682bce71.html ( from The Gazette ) @AF_Football video highlights of win over Fresno State GO FALCONS-Rick'77 https://youtu.be/KfZpRJs9i98?feature=shared

Grand Canyon University joins Mountain West in all sports except football which they currently do not field. Both basketball and baseball have gone to NCAA tournament multiple times the last 4 years. https://gculopes.com/news/2024/11/1/general-gcu-accepts-invite-to-mountain-west-conference.aspx Below is the list of sports they currently field. Welcome to the Mountain West Conference. GO FALCONS -Rick'77

Don't turn your dial....stay tuned for the next episode of PAC to the ACC now not AAC or BIG or.....be right back after commercial break.

Just to help him be accurate, I received a copy of OSBeavers next tweet which will be the official announcement: OSBeaver In breaking news the Pac 4 is merging with the MWC and the AAC and adding Gonzaga as a basketball and Olympic sports school. Pac has negotiated with linear TV coverage by ESPN for $20mil per school. Fox has agreed to 2nd tier rights. You heard it first hete!

Ha....AF before UNLV and Memphis for sure

A very interesting read with Q&A on the now Pac-4 and MWC options. The MWC is really in the driver's seat IF they stay strong and together in the decision process.

One reason....time zones vs viewership. Viewers don't want to watch 6-10pm kickoff times on the east coast for west coast games.....combined with not many teams consistently good in top 25 in recent years = $$$$'s

Only if playing a MWC team. Or How about?

Saw this on another forum and re-post with utmost respect to the Wyoming Cowboys New merger rebranded .... Broke-Pac-Mountain

I'm sure you would say the same thing if Boise had a team that made it to the NCAAs in soccer. Get a life

With a win on the road over #15 Denver in the NCAA round 2 (after winning their opening round match at the Academy) the Air Force Falcons will travel to play #2 nationally ranked Indiana next week in the third round of the NCAA tournament.

Big difference here is they broke into an individual’s house (heated garage) to start the incident. And reference above it has been all over the news. https://gazette.com/sports/air-force-falcon-mascot-suffers-life-threatening-injuries-as-result/article_3e982b60-dfab-11e8-a066-9b1d737f0c1a.html -
Glad to see blue(tool)rules is alive and well. Last year AF vs BSU there was one penalty for illegal block and it was by BSU. Funny how that is ignored. With that said.... AF vs BSU http://ricksfalconreview.blogspot.com/ Big game with a traditionally tough Boise State team as kickoff is at 5pm MDT at Falcon Stadium (am740 and CBSSports). The Falcons have won the last two times at home and are 3-1 in the last 4 years losing badly last year on the blue turf of BSU. BSU strength is their passing offense matched up with AF's weakness in the secondary which has been exploited this season. Most pundits recognize the improvement in the Falcon rush attack that has the ability to make BSU one dimensional but that still pits a strength against a weakness. Some very good reads below to breakdown the game. My thoughts are simple: -Time of possession for AF is key to a win. BSU WILL score but we need to keep their defenders on the field for 80% of the game and 'then' when we get that one stop on defense we score again. -Do not get far behind BSU or the chance of an upset is slim. -Take the early lead using the pass early to set up the run.
