Roster changes for Air Force

[ColonialHead]

*At quarterback, Jimmy Clausen and Evan Sharpley are listed as "OR." This isn't surprising, though, and will likely be solved during Tuesday's press conference.

*At running back, the starter is sophomore James Aldridge "OR" freshman Armando Allen. The list after that goes fifth-year senior Travis Thomas, freshman Robert Hughes and then senior Junior Jabbie.

*At the "X" wide receiver, the starter is either freshman Duval Kamara "OR" sophomore George West. Junior D.J. Hord, who was listed below Kamara and West at the "X" is no longer listed.

*At the "Z" wide receiver, the listed starter is sophomore Robby Parris "OR" junior David Grimes.

*At right guard, the starter will be Eric Olsen "OR" Dan Wenger. Wenger began the season as the starter. Olsen has started the past few weeks.

The thing that stands out to me (and it's nothing new this week, it's just that I've overlooked/forgotten it so far this year) is how DJ Hord has pretty much dropped off the radar screen. Hopefully that's more of an indication of exactly how good our young talent is as opposed to DJ Hord not being as good as expected (or possibly not able to ever be able to get back to 100% after the torn achilles.)

Give Parris a shot. Grimes keeps dropping balls...

Nicely done. Thanks very much, ColonialHead.

Sage, Parris has been listed ahead of Grimes for several weeks now, and has clearly been the #1 (or co-#1 with Kamara).

 

[Sureal]

Ok it confused me with the "or" bit. I thought maybe they were changing it up or I was just missing something all together.

I think Kamara has earned the right to start with his performance against navy, and I think he has looked pretty good for a true frosh.

I got them off of the Air Force website. Around about May-ish. I simply requested seats "as close to the field, as close to the 50 yard line as possible, and preferably on the aisle". We got two seats in the front row, about the 25 yard line, right on the aisle. The Air Force fans were great, and there was plenty of green, or blue and gold, in our section. I'd highly recommend attending an Air Force game, if you ever get the chance. The mountain views are incredible. That game was Nov. 6, and a sweatshirt was plenty warm. And it's really a fairly short trip from Denver down to Colorado Springs. (Probably 60 -90 minutes, even with gameday traffic).

I also went to the airforce game a few years back that fell over fall break. Since my parents live in the Springs it was highly convenient, and they had season tickets that year. I ended up in the AF supporters section in my green shirt, but the fans were all class except for one guy. He tried to get in my face after we fumbled the ball, I just ignored him, but I my mom almost fought the guy! Definitely don't get between a mother and her child, even at a football game.

The stadium and the view are amazing, going home for thanksgiving, Mountains, I'll see you soon!

My buddy, who lives in Georgetown, is a huge ND fan. I went over to hang with him and go to the game. So we didn't spend a lot of time in the Springs, but the campus of the AFA was pretty impressive.
