AIR FORCE ACADEMY -- The Midshipmen blocked two punts for touchdowns as they beat Air Force for a sixth straight time with a 33-27 win on Saturday.

"We haven't been the greatest of special teams," said Navy coach Ken Niumatalolo, whose team hadn't blocked a punt for a score in nearly nine years. "I told them to go after it."

The crack the Midshipman saw on film was the back wall shifting out of sync once the ball was snapping, leaving a tiny gap.

That itty-bitty flaw had big consequences.

"It allowed us to get in there," Blake Carter said.

New Mexico 24,

Wyoming 0

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. -- Safety Frankie Solomon's 13-yard interception return for a touchdown on the first play from scrimmage got New Mexico rolling to the Lobos' first Mountain West Conference shutout since 1983.

New Mexico (3-3, 1-1 MWC) needed just 15 seconds into the game to take advantage of Wyoming's propensity for turnovers this season.
