Air Force vs. Army (High Noon, ESPNU) Round 2 of the Commander in Chiefs Trophy will happen at the home of THE United States Military Academy when the Falcons take on the Cadets/Black Knights. If you have ESPNU and you arent busy, watch this game. Heck, watch the service academies anytime they play each other. Sure its a cliché to say that nowhere else on earth can you see anything like this but in this case its correct. Looking forward to attending the Army - Navy game in Philly December 6th!
Air Force is 6 - 2 so the Black Knights have a tough task ahead of them Saturday. At least it's at West Point and they won't have to contend with the altitude in Colorado Springs.

You make a good point, the altitude in “the Springs” is over a mile high—I believe it’s around 6,000 feet above sea level. I’ve always liked watching the academies for obvious reasons, but they all have their own wrinkles in the option attacks that they run. I know that Air Force always gives the Utes a game and it never matters how good or bad each team is.
