Mostly just wanted to move Jeremy's post to a new thread, since it was very succinct.

The Orange should beat Air Force pretty handily - the Falcons are saving the ball at just a 37% clip and have taken some pretty bad losses already this season. The travel piece should be something to monitor, but the Orange went out west last year against Utah and did okay.

Denver should be a different story - their goalie is on fire this season, with a save percentage of 67% so far. Obviously two years ago the Orange offense sputtered out against the Pioneer defense in the NCAAs.  The good news this time around is that they don't have Alec Stathiks as their fogo and are right at 50% for the year. Given the difficulties in scoring, the Orange will have to have as many bites at the apple as possible, so Mullen will need to have a big game here. Cannot let Denver take the air out of the ball like they did last year. Both teams have a game to go before their meet up (Denver plays Ohio State on Thursday), so probably should wait for those play out before making too many grand pronouncements.
