Mountain West Wire Game of the Week Simulation: Air Force vs. Wyoming
The NCAA 14 Video Game Says Air Force Pays Miserably Against Wyoming, Losing 14-7

Fans of Wyoming will enjoy this outcome! The Cowboys hold a very sloppy Air Force team to just seven points in our NCAA14 simulation of this Saturday’s big matchup.
For those new to our simulations, we use the College Football Revamped version of EA Sports NCAA14, with updated 2024 rosters. There is no user impact, just a computer simulation of the given teams.
It’s pretty amazing that the score wasn’t far worse than 14-7 quite honestly. Air Force turned the ball over five times, four of which were fumbles, three coming from their star running back, John Lee Eldridge. Add in an interception from Zac Larrier, prior to exiting the game with injury, and you pretty much have the signature recipe for the Falcons.
Wyoming on the other hand had a stat line that pretty closely resembled what we’ve come to expect from Craig Bohl’s bunch. A stingy defense that gives the team a chance to win. And a run heavy offense, that got less than 100 yards chipped in from the passing game. Just the way you would draw it up, right Poke’s fans!?
Interesting enough, we left Wyoming’s biggest offensive weapon, Harrison Waylee in for this one, despite being questionable for Saturday’s game. The running back definitely was a difference maker, rushing for more yards than any tandem of ball carriers for Air Force. A truly dreadful showing from the Falcons in this one.
The Air Force faithful will not be pleased if the Falcons cough the ball up five times in their primetime showdown with Wyoming. Both of these teams have legit defenses, so don’t be surprised if the scoring total isn’t all that different from what we saw on the simulation.
