YTD: (9-4) +220
Colorado State -1**
The Rams have won 5 of their last 6 games, including 3 in a row. The Falcons have lost 2 in a row. Colorado State is (4-2) on the road and Air Force is (4-1) at home. There will be a lot of Colorado State fans at the game tonight. The Rams own quality wins over Virginia, Colorado and Louisville. The Falcons have one quality win on their resume (@ California).
Rushing yards:
AF - 300 yards per game/5.1 yards per carry*
CSU - 217 yards per game/4.8 yards per carry
Passing yards:
AF - 85 yards per game/6.1 yards per attempt
CSU - 197 yards per game/7.3 yards per attempt*
These two teams have almost identical defensive numbers against the run and pass. The only reason that Colorado State's rushing numbers aren't as good as Air Force's coming into this game, is because the Rams also possess an effective passing game. That is the main difference between these two teams. Colorado State can beat you two ways and Air Force can beat you only one way, by running the wishbone time after time. My money will be on the more balanced team, Colorado State.
Good luck!
