agree phancard & charlene  tcu with their stifling defense should be able to shut down the air force attack. air force is not texas.

Army,Navy, and Air Force teams always have a disadvantage in size due to military regulations. TCU defense should over power Air force offensive line.

Only 4 returning starters on offense for Air force but still Air Force impresses me with a 2-0 start of the season.

Coach Calhoun replacing the Air Force Icon coach DeBerry of 23 years. New head coaches normally don't fair to well replacing a coach of so many years.

Air Force is 2-10 before the BYU game.

I like TCU in this one but still need some time to think.

I agree with you all with TCU. Their D will not have to be on the field quite as much as they were vs Texas last week. The O with /without A. Brown should be able to move the ball against Air Force D better than they did last week, thus giving the D a good rest before they come back on to the field.
Last year Air Force call into this game as #3 in the nation in rushing, And TCU was the only on to hold them under 100yds in a game. TCU has also won the last 4 in this series.

For once, I am agreeing with the panel on this one. It is hard to imagine Air Force being able to stay in this game with TCU and the defensive matchups that they present. This is one game that I will have to say that I see absolutely no reason to take the dog. Without fear of the Air Force passing game, TCU can focus on stopping the run, and single cover on the outside. The Frogs are still smarting over the loss to Texas last week, and unfortunately, Air Force is in the way

Air Force is sneaky good.  Troy Calhoun has shown in the first two weeks that he has his teams ready to play.  Winning in Utah is impressive.  Air Force is a program headed in the right direction.

Before the season, there was lots of talk about TCU being a BCS buster.  The Frogs put a great deal of preparation into the Texas game and to get steamrolled in the second half is demoralizing for these kids. 

With BCS aspirations for the season, I don't see how TCU gets up off the mat and fired up for a road trip to Air Force.  Taking AF, you'll get a team feeling good about themselves, at home in front of their fans, against a demoralized team giving around eight on the road.  Air Force outright at home.

Good luck!

It doesn't look to me like Brown will play, the paper said that Patterson would have to make a decision earlier than usuall because of the conference limitations on how many can travel.  Also, we are going to play a true freshman (Baynard?) this week at tailback, Turner is out (foot), Watts is terrible, so is Christian, burning a redshirt for a true freshman leads me to believe we are desperate at RB and that AB wont play.  Even so, we kill AF usually, the one thing TCU has been able to do the last 5 years is stop the run.  That is why we played so well and beat OU on the road 3 years ago, they tried to run with Peterson, and he got stuffed.  I still like the frogs in this, but the short week off and emotional game worries me a little.

You're absolutely right, in last year's game against TCU, Airforce scored 2 touchdowns in the 4th quarter and only lost 38 - 14.

I really think TCU could win by at least 10 pts, thats good enough to cover!

since the great majority of the public loves TCU, i'll just take airforce plus the points. Thursday nights are known for upsets, well atleast underdog covers anyhow. I would think vegas would be willing to give Airforce alot more points but since they're not, i'll stick to the doggggie.

What's up my friend

Looks like you changed your mind with this one. Doesn't seem like something you would normally do.

Possible TCU at the half and Air Force final for you???

Anyway good luck bro!

Air Force teased up 6 1/2 looks pretty solid here, otherwise I leave alone.

helppp
 
i'm in a slump. took the ravens and the 6 fumbles killed me. Took san fran and lost by .5 a point. Michigan fubbed me as well. What the hell though it's gambling. Anyone think buying a capper for the year is worthit?
 
As for this game, I'm thinking 8 points for a a top ten team coming off a dissapointing loss should be golden. Especially with that D, I don't see AF being able to score...
 
but since I'm down thinking about teasing TCU and WVU down. WVU at -10 looks really good.
 
Whats the scoop on AF and Maryland? Maryland QB looks hurt
