Air Force was the closest team to beating TCU in the regular season in a 20-17 loss. That game was in icy conditions at the Academy and saw TCU have two turnovers inside the red zone. Both teams are expected to be about where they were last year. The game being in Fort Worth makes conditions much more ideal then last years ice storm and is more conducive for the running game that favors Air Force.
The Falcon defense was a step behind TCU in pass defense, so TCU QB Andy Dalton better be careful when throwing against the Falcon secondary. The game should be close again due to the ball control that Air Force employees, but my opinion is that TCU wins and in a larger fashion then last years squeaker.
Air Force is 42nd and TCU IS 6TH in the Sporting News Top 100. This game as a 7:00 P.M. CT kick on October 16th and will be televised on CBS College Sports
