THE GAZETTE

Time: 4:30 p.m. today, Clune Arena, 740 AM

FLORIDA A&M (5-7)

Last game: 87-82 loss at Florida International

About the Rattlers: About the Rattlers: Florida A&M is a poor shooting team in every category – 2-point shots, 3-point shots and free throws. Air Force should be able to keep the Rattlers’ scoring down. In Florida A&M’s three biggest tests, against Alabama, Cincinnati and Dayton, it lost by 39, 25 and 20 points.

AIR FORCE (8-4)

Last game: 71-54 loss at UTEP

About the Falcons: Air Force is hoping Taylor Broekhuis, who was out the last two games because of a concussion, returns to the lineup. An Air Force spokesman said Broekhuis was considered probable to play today. If Broekhuis returns, the Falcons will field their tallest team of the year, because 6-8 forward Zach Bohannon returned to the lineup last week when Broekhuis was out.
