CUI Staff Picks: Colorado vs. Air Force

Jack Carlough, Head Sports Editor

Score Prediction: Colorado 37, Air Force 21

We’ve reached the final non-conference game and the Buffaloes have an interesting opponent knocking on their door. Here’s the stat you need to know about Air Force: in their season-opening 48-7 win over Colgate last week, they threw the ball just one time. You read that right, a 48-point offensive barrage almost entirely reliant on the run game. Albeit the one pass was for 41 yards, but that’s what makes these triple-option offenses so difficult at times, it’s all or nothing.
