THROUGH 4

Had anyone said Air Force would be 2-2 in Mountain West play as they get ready to face San Jose State Wednesday Night at Clune Arena many followers would have said we'll take it. And Rightly so. With a very young team and another daunting schedule in the conference the feeling was, and is, it could be a tough year. 4 games into conference play its clear to me the Falcons will finish higher than 10th place, where the media selected them at the start of the year. Break down the 4 games and you see two losses by less than 10 points, 1 to the now 10th ranked team in the nation. But in order for the Falcons to keep surprising and winning, they need to do the intangibles, the hard things, some clubs won't do.....rebound, get on the floor for loose balls, go to the glass with their offense, and be mentally tougher. This is a fun team to watch, one that has already surprised. Mountain West Teams better not fall asleep on the Falcons.
