BYU ?6 - While Air Force is to be commended for their tremendous turnaround that has seen them post a 19-4 S/U record this season, I feel it is a lot to ask for them to win on the road at Utah and BYU in consecutive games. Yes, the Falcons held on for the 59-57 upset of the Utes on Saturday, but they now must travel to possibly the toughest venue in the entire country for visiting teams. The Cougars are a perfect 11-0 S/U and an unbelievable 9-1 ATS here in this building this year, winning those games by a whopping average of 18.2 points! They are coming off of a 17-point trouncing of a decent New Mexico team on Saturday, and they blew away Air Force 65-33 the last time the Fly Boys visited here last year. While I do expect the Falcons to improve greatly on that 33-point output, I still do not expect enough improvement to prevent a rather safe BYU victory in here. As if that is not enough, the Cougars are also looking for revenge for a 22-point pasting they received at Air Force last month, and I am looking for some major payback.
