With good reason. Like last week with UNLV I think the Rams are better than 1-3. They have been inconsistent, and have been missing their top rusher Chris Nwoke (Wo-kay). But he is healthy and will start Saturday. If I'm Coach Jim Mclewain watching tape of Air Force losing to UNLV I will try and run the ball all day. Nwoke had 249 yards rushing against the Falcons last year. The smallest guy on CSU's offensive line is 297 pounds. Quarterback Garret Grayson could give Air Force problems as well. He has 7 touchdowns and 2 interceptions and he spreads the ball all over the field. The Falcons have had trouble all year defending the pass, and getting to the QB. To be fair, the Rams offensive numbers are bad-98 yards rushing a game, 17 points a game, which is 113th in the NCAA. But the Falcons have to play better defense than last week.
Colorado State is giving up 27 points a game, and I think Air Force will be okay running the football. But in my opinion the Falcons need to throw a bit more, and use more formations to spread out the Rams defense. The Falcons have hurt themselves with penalties on the offensive side of the ball. They can't do that Saturday. Drives need to be efficient and wind up in the end zone and not with 3 points.
Look for a high scoring game, with Air Force winning 40-27. But this game still worries me.
