Time: 3:30 EST
Network: CBSS
Point Spread: Air Force -14.5
Over-Under: 62
Why You Should Watch: This game lost its luster when the Falcons coughed up 21 fourth-quarter points last week to Wyoming to ruin any chances of the postseason. Still, it's always fun to watch the triple option.

Time: 7:30 EST

Point Spread: Mississippi State -11
