AIR FORCE ACADEMY – Colorado State and Air Force are charter members of the Mountain West.

The long-time conference rivals will soon take different paths. CSU will join the Pac-12 in 2026 while Air Force will remain in the Mountain West. Saturday's game could be the rivals' last meeting at Falcon Stadium for a long time.

It's a key game, especially for CSU, as the Rams look to gain momentum in conference play.

Follow below for live updates from Falcon Stadium.

After Avery Morrow's 50-yard run to the Air Force 5, CSU's opening drive appears to be honored. Justin Marshall runs to the 1, then Avery Morrow carries but fails in front of the goal line.

The Air Force is recovering. Big swing.

The Air Force wins the toss and moves. CSU ball first.

Expected starting quarterback Quentin Hayes will not be wearing a uniform during warmups and will not play.

That means it's probably Josh Johnson as QB. The Air Force has used three different players at the position.

—Kevin Lytle

Some interesting notes from the pregame warmups for CSU.

Running back Justin Marshall is in uniform and warming up. He was a question mark.

Defensive player Nuer Gatkuoth is also in uniform and warming up. Jay Norvell said this week he didn't expect Gatkuoth to play.
