Air Force has had more success this season than most had predicted. A lot of it has been attributable to the rapid development of their two key offensive players: QB Shaun Carney and RB-PR Chad Hall. Carney has really had a breakout year. He has hit on 62% of his passes for almost 1,000 yards - making the Wishbone more dangerous. That is especially true when he can run it too. He has 291 yards and two TDs as well. Chad Hall has been unstoppable. He has rushed 76 times for 589 yards, for an amazing 7.8 yards per carry. Hall has also been dangerous out of the backfield, catching 30 balls for 337 yards. Hall is also averaging 15 yards on punt returns. The Falcons' attack is No. 5 in the country running the ball. Wyoming has made a lot of mistakes offensively, putting a ton of pressure on the defense and it is beginning to show. Karsten Sween has already thrown nine INTs and Ian Hetrick another, for a total of 10. This is all coming from a passing game that simply does not throw downfield, as only one receiver out of the 11 that have caught passes averages double-digit yards per catch. The defense which is good was not good against the bone last year, as two Falcon players topped 100 yards, and that was on the road. The added pressure has seen the defense tire, and has now allowed 25-ppg over the last four. Prosperity has been very good for the Falcons, as they are 16-6 ATS after a 20+ point win, while the Cowboys are just 2-9-1 ATS after an ATS loss. Two teams heading in different directions, and we like the Falcons to win at home.
