Air Force Falcons to Face Fresno State Bulldogs at Save Mart Center
As the Air Force Falcons prepare to face off against the Fresno State Bulldogs at the Save Mart Center, fans can anticipate a game where recent trends and statistics will play a crucial role. The Falcons have shown resilience in their past performances, demonstrating an ability to score both inside the paint and from beyond the arc.
In their latest outing, the Falcons soared high with an impressive victory over Colorado State Rams, scoring 85 points. Their offensive prowess was on full display as they shot 51 percent from the field and an outstanding 84 percent from the free-throw line. They also showcased their defensive capabilities with six steals and two blocks while dominating on rebounds with a total of 39.
However, in a prior matchup against Utah State Aggies at Clune Arena, despite putting up a strong fight, they fell short by 12 points. The team's shooting percentages were notable with a solid 43 percent from field goals and about 35 percent from three-point range. Yet turnovers matched their number of assists which could be an area for improvement going into this upcoming game.
Another home game saw them narrowly defeated by Nevada Wolf Pack where they managed to score 69 points but allowed 75. In that contest, they shot well again at around 46 percent overall but struggled slightly more from long distance compared to other games.
The venue may influence this upcoming match as playing away could challenge the Falcons' adaptability and composure under pressure. However, if they maintain their shooting efficiency and tighten up ball handling to reduce turnovers while continuing robust rebounding efforts, they stand a good chance of taking flight once more.
