The Colorado State Rams are flying high with a NET ranking of 98, but their recent form has been a mixed bag, with a win and two losses in their last three games. They'll look to get back on track against the Air Force Falcons, who are struggling with a 3-20 record and a dismal 0-12 conference mark. The Falcons' quad record is also underwhelming, with a 0-5 mark in Quad 1 and 2 games. A win for Colorado State would be a Quad 4 victory, which won't do much to boost their tournament resume, but a loss would be a significant setback.

The CHD Scout prediction has Colorado State winning by 15.9 points, with a whopping 90.2% win probability. Given Air Force's recent form, with a three-game losing streak, it's hard to argue with those numbers. The Falcons' NET ranking of 344 is a major concern, and their quad record suggests they've struggled against top-tier competition. Colorado State, on the other hand, has a decent quad record, with a 1-4 mark in Quad 1 games and a 3-4 record in Quad 2 games.
