If CSU wins . . .
Following this game, CSU may have the opportunity to make a run. The teams that make up the rest of the Rams’ schedule have a combined record of 9-21 to date. In a worst best-case scenario, CSU would need to win three of their last five games to become bowl eligible.
Perhaps more importantly, a victory for the green and gold could give a struggling team some confidence moving forward in conference play, and would establish a positive tone heading into the second half of the season.
and Air Force loses . . .
A bowl game becomes a little more doubtful for the Falcons should they lose Saturday. Air Force will weather the gauntlet in their final three regular season games—after facing Utah State in Colorado Springs, the Falcons will hit the road to take on New Mexico and a 21st-ranked Boise State team that did this to CSU:

Having played one less game than the Rams, however, the Falcons face a less-dire situation if things don’t go their way tomorrow.
