It was a weird one down in Colorado Springs, but not because of the game, because of the tragedy the day before.
Forward Emmanuel Omogbo’s parents, along with his two-year old niece and nephew, died in a house fire the night before. But, there was Omogbo playing for his Colorado State Rams against the rival Air Force Falcons, somehow, some way. Interestingly, Omogbo didn’t start the game, like he usually does, because head coach Larry Eustachy decided to shake up the starting lineup before the tragedy.
There was no way the Rams were going to lose this game.
