Calhoun is the only coach in the 100-plus year history of service academy football to lead teams to at least eight regular-season wins and a bowl game in each of his first two seasons.

Emmitt and I watched his team route a once BCS hopefull Houston Cougar team today. Air Force had the ball 40 minutes to Houston's 18, and racked up 563 yards to Houston's 331. This was a perfect example of what a solid defense can do for you. #1 Pass defense shut down the #1 Pas offense. Fairly chilly weather today but a nice game all around.

Why do we continue to give Dodge a pass?????????????

Why would you hire a successful HC like this to work under the current excuse we call HC at NT? This guy has shown he can win at a service academy with all of their academic and service requirements. Think about what he could possibly do at a public school.

He not only showed he can win at an extremely difficult place like a service academy, but he proved to the excuse making lemmings that it can be done in 3 years or less.

i'm not saying to give dodge a pass, but the op had stated that a number 1 pass defense shuts down a number 1 pass offense, therefore defense is more important, so shouldn't deloach be looked at as well?

i like the guy...he did wonders during his first run here and i hope he turns it around.

but i'm just a lemming

      Should we add Texas State to the AAC?

      TXST in the same conference would be fun, but there are a lot of great moves to make... many of the current teams in our conference need to be kicked out first to avoid cheapening the media payout.

      Who did better? PAC 12 or Mountain West?

      Before the PAC2 raided the MWC, I had been a supporter of joining a rebuilt PAC, as long as it was a true "Western Conference" of D1, and we shared a nice little 6-8 division with the likes of Memphis, UTSA, Colorado State, Air Force, New Mexico, Tulane, and a Rice or Tulsa. But it did not appear the PAC was going to bring enough programs close to DFW to make the added travel and exit fees worth it. Still don't know how the MWC held onto UNLV and Nevada, otherwise it'd be an even crappier conference than CUSA. But unlike the PAC7, it will still be recognized as an FBS conference next July. Doesn't seem like Memphis, Tulane, and USF will be going there, especially with an unknown TV deal. Ultimately I think with realignment, one of the G6 leagues will dissolve. The American struggles by being a league with several new teams, no notable rivalries, and no regional tie like the PAC, SBC, MWC, and MAC claim. And there are plenty of moves we could make to improve across many sports, but the league is so saturated. If it were up to me, I'd get Rice, Tulsa, Charlotte, Temple out of the conference. Force FAU and UTSA to find a solution to their high school gyms. Add Texas State, James Madison, Liberty, Western Kentucky, Appalachian State, and Louisiana. That would create a 16-team conference with a 8-team West Division UNT would share and play annually against with UTSA, TXST, Tulane, Louisiana, Memphis, Western Kentucky, and UAB. Instead of playing frickin' Temple three times in three years. That would leave us at 15 teams for basketball, I'd add up to three non-football members between Dayton, St. Louis, VCU, Richmond.

      Women vs. South Florida (1/12/25)

      Get your rears to The Pit tomorrow! The ladies have a difficult opponent to face coming off their failed comeback in New Orleans the other night. South Florida is 11-6 but tied for a league-best 4-0 in AAC play. They were picked to win the conference last year but we beat them in our one meeting in Tampa. USF absolutely crushed Wichita State the other night in Kansas: 72-46. Tickets: https://meangreensports.evenue.net/event/WB24/WB10
