Colorado State Set to Face Air Force in High-Stakes Mountain West Clash

CBS Sports Network is gearing up for an exciting day of college football with a lineup of three games this Saturday, as fans eagerly anticipate a weekend filled with intriguing matchups. Among these is the face-off between Colorado State and Air Force in a pivotal Mountain West contest.

The Colorado State Rams secured a much-needed victory in Week 7, defeating an opponent with a score of 31-24. Before this win, the Rams had struggled, holding a 1-3 record against FBS teams. The momentum from this win is critical as they prepare to meet the Air Force Falcons this week.

Air Force, on the other hand, is in search of redemption. Under the guidance of veteran coach Troy Calhoun, the Falcons are experiencing a challenging season. Their most recent setback came with a 52-37 loss, leaving them with a record of 1-5 overall and 0-3 in Mountain West conference play. Notably, Air Force is dealing with a concerning nine-game losing streak against FBS opponents during regular season matches.

This game also carries historical significance as the Ram-Falcon trophy is up for grabs. Adding another layer to the anticipation is the looming change in conference alignments, with Colorado State set to join the Pac-12 in 2026. Hence, the upcoming game at Falcon Stadium might be one of the last between these rivals on this field for some time.

Football enthusiasts can catch the action live on CBS Sports Network, with Chris Lewis and Robert Turbin providing commentary, and Amanda Guerra reporting from the sidelines. Fans can also opt to stream the game through CBS’s subscription service or Fubo, which offers a free trial for new users.

The game is scheduled to kick off at 8 p.m. Eastern Time at Falcon Stadium, located within the Air Force Academy grounds in Colorado.
