 AIR FORCE ACADEMY, Colo. (AP) - Jacob Burtschi chewed on a piece of strawberry Laffy Taffy as he concentrated on the question. The Air Force senior was asked if the Falcons were playing these days to catch the attention of the NCAA selection committee.
"We just go out there and play," Burtschi said after No. 17 Air Force beat Utah 69-43 on Wednesday night to extend its home winning streak to 29 straight. "If we impress the committee, that's great. We have to just keep playing our game."
It's certainly working — especially at home. The Falcons (22-4, 9-3 Mountain West Conference) are tied with Brigham Young for the longest home winning streak in the nation after Gonzaga's 50-game home win streak was snapped Monday night by Santa Clara.
