Looking at the schedule, six losses would be serious underachievement. I know some doubts have crept in, but I think those are a result of overzealous early expectations, not because this is a mediocre team.
So far, we have looked very good at home. I don't expect that to change. The most difficult road games are at UK, Missouri and UT. We get Vandy (usually a tough road site) at home only and Arky doesn't look very good so far.
So, if you allow for a split of the three toughies and one unexpected home loss, you get to 14-4. Two more losses would require dropping two games to the likes of sub 500 league teams. Could it happen, well, sure it could. However, I think we're better than that.

They are 8-3 with the losses to #5 RPI Colorado, #10 RPI UF and #16 RPI Wichita St
it works both ways.

So they have lost to the 3 teams they have played worth a damn. The best win was vs army. what about them makes you think they are a good team? The probably win 2-3 in the mwc.

And we beat them by 17. And your point is?......other than us not being an NC caliber team, which few are.

My point seemed to be pretty clear. Air force isn't a good team. Some have said otherwise. Didn't say anything about us or our margin of victory.

They have played pretty competitive with the teams they've lost to. so good is a relative term but they are worthy of respect and any victory is a good victory, but AF is not an NCAA Tournament team, yes, I'd agree.

I thought that this would be a 10-15 point win, comfortable but not a blow out per se. It pretty much went as I expected.

Guess what? Air Force is now 5-2 in the Mountain West, including a victory over nationally ranked San Diego State last night. Guess your attempt to denigrate the Gators wasn't real astute, was it?
If Air Force somehow loses their remaining nine conference games and has to forfeit 2 or 3 that they've already won, then your prediction will be right on target.

Uninspiring, ehh? Looking more and more like a 17 point win over a quality team.
