AIR FORCE ACADEMY, Colo. -- Jeremy McNichols, one of the nations leading rushers, was stuffed, stymied and stood up on three cracks from inside the 5. A quarterback sneak didnt work, either.Wyoming certainly appreciated it.Air Force had a late goal-line stand, Tyler Weaver returned a blocked punt 11 yards for a first-half touchdown and the Falcons beat No. 20 Boise State 27-20 on Friday, ending the Broncos bid for the Mountain West title.Wyoming will face San Diego State in the conference championship game Dec. 3.Haji Dunn Jr. recovered quarterback Brett Rypiens fumble on fourth-and-goal from the 1 with just under 2 minutes remaining to help the Falcons (9-3, 5-3 Mountain West) knock off Boise State for a third straight season. They join Idaho (1982-93) and Nevada (1996-98) as the only teams to beat the Broncos in at least three straight years.Thank goodness they didnt run wide, said senior safety Brodie Hicks, who forced the fumble. We put all our marbles inside.The Broncos (10-2, 6-2, No. 19 CFP) needed a win at Air Force and for New Mexico to upset Mountain Division-leading Wyoming on Saturday to earn a spot in the conferences title game.No reason to watch now.Its like an empty feeling, Boise State receiver Cedrick Wilson said. We wish we could have pulled through like we practiced but sometimes you fall short.McNichols rushed for 60 yards -- and a score -- on his opening two carries, but was held to 28 yards the rest of the way. He had three carries at the goal line on Boise States last possession, but couldnt get in.On fourth down, Rypien tried to sneak it in only to have the ball knocked free by Hicks. Dunn was there to recover it.Its a game I thought we prepared well for and our guys were looking forward to coming in here and playing our best football, Boise State coach Bryan Harsin said. We didnt do that tonight, so a lot of disappointment in the locker room.Off target most of the day, Rypien found his touch in the fourth quarter and led a spirited Broncos rally. He hit Wilson for a 75-yard TD pass to pull Boise State to 27-20 with 8:50 remaining. He wound up a yard shy of possibly tying the game.Brett Baldwin gave the Falcons a big boost when he broke through and blocked a punt by Sean Wale just before halftime. Weaver caught the ball out of the air and ran it in to give the Falcons a 17-7 lead.Air Force took advantage of a Boise State defense that was missing several starters by running it up the middle. Falcon fullbacks D.J. Johnson and Shayne Davern combined for 25 carries and 111 yards up the middle. Johnson scored on a 1-yard plunge in the first quarter and Davern on an 8-yard run in the third.You dont know how much it meant to go out and win this way, Hicks said. We as seniors had to leave behind something to be remembered for.THE TAKEAWAYBoise State: An offense that scored more than 40 points in each of the last games struggled to find its rhythm until the fourth quarter. Rypien overthrew receivers and McNichols never could find a lane.Air Force: A lot to like about an offense led by elusive quarterback Arion Worthman, who rushed for 80 yards. He has the Falcons heading to their ninth bowl game since coach Troy Calhoun took over in 2007.POLL IMPLICATIONSBoise State: This figures to drop the Broncos out of the poll.NAME GAMEAir Force senior wide receiver Jalen Robinette wore Rowell on the back of his jersey. Just his way of honoring his mom, Trine Rowell, who was on hand as the Falcons recognized 32 seniors playing in their final game at Falcon Stadium. This is the biggest senior class in Academy history.Robinette had three catches for 45 yards against Boise State. His 118 career catches are second all-time in school history. Ernie Jennings (1968-70) has the record at 148.We wanted to go out with a win and what better than to do in against a ranked team, Robinette said.RANKED TEAMSThis was Air Forces first win over a ranked team since defeating No. 21 Colorado State 27-24 on Nov. 29, 2014, at Falcon Stadium.We like being the underdog, Johnson said.UP NEXTBoth teams will wait to find out their bowl pairings.---More AP college football at www.collegefootball.ap.org and https://twitter.com/AP-Top25 Fausse Air Max 270 React .

CHICAGO -- One misplaced changeup was quite costly for Steven Matz and the New York Mets.Matz served up a three-run homer on his 10th pitch to Anthony Rizzo in the third inning, and the Mets lost 5-1 to the Chicago Cubs on Monday night in a rematch of last years NL Championship Series.You really want to grit your teeth and beat this guy, Matz said. Unfortunately, he won.Wilmer Flores hit a leadoff homer in the seventh inning, but New York went 0 for 7 with runners in scoring position and left seven runners on base in its fifth loss in seven games.Hitting is very, very hard. But weve had guys who have done this, who have driven in runs, manager Terry Collins said. Youre looking at three or four guys that have all driven in a lot of runs in their careers. Were hoping it turns, for sure.With one out and two on in the third, Rizzo fouled off five straight 2-2 pitches before driving a changeup deep into the bleachers in right-center for his 22nd homer.It was 2-2 for a while there. I dont think he wanted to go 3-2, Rizzo said. He was making good pitches and I was just fighting them off. Just try to grind at-bats. Thats what were so good at doing.The crowd of 41,353 cheered wildly as Rizzo rounded the bases on a picturesque night at Wrigley Field. The All-Star slugger is batting .339 with three homers and 10 RBI in July.Hes the anchor of the whole group. Theres no question about it, Cubs manager Joe Maddon said.The last time the Mets visited the iconic neighborhood ballpark, they finished off a sweep of the Cubs to advance to the World Series. They swept Chicago again in New York from June 30 to July 3, roughing up Jon Lester for one of the wins.This time around was much different.Lester (10-4) allowed one run and four hits in his first win in a month, helping the NL Central leaders win for the fourth time in five games since dropping five in a row.We were able to get some quick outs with some well-located fastballs and some well-located cutters, Lester said, so that was huge for us tonight.Hector Rondon replaced Carl Edwards Jr. with two runnners on in the ninth and got Travis dArnaud to bounce into a game-ending double play for his 16th save.ddddddddddddMatz was charged with four runs and eight hits in five-plus innings. The rookie left-hander dropped to 0-5 in his last nine starts.Even though I thought he threw the ball fine, he didnt have his real Grade-A stuff, Collins said. But he battled the best he could.Matz nearly had another run on his line, but left fielder Yoenis Cespedes cut down Willson Contreras with a perfect throw to the plate when the rookie tried to score from second on Szczurs third-inning single.WELCOME BACKNew Yorks Michael Conforto, who was recalled from Triple-A Las Vegas after Sundays 5-0 win at Philadelphia, pinch-hit in the ninth and reached on an opposite-field single to left.I think its a testament to what Ive been working on, he said. Ive been trying to use the whole field like I did last year and earlier in the year. So I think its definitely a product of the things Ive been working on.TRAINERS ROOMMets: RHP Matt Harvey had season-ending thoracic outlet surgery in St. Louis. ... RHP Jim Henderson (biceps) is throwing 91 to 93 mph during his rehab stint at Triple-A Las Vegas, and Collins said the reliever is nearing a return.Cubs: OFs Dexter Fowler (right hamstring strain) and Jorge Soler (left hamstring strain) were traveling to Iowa and are expected to begin their rehab stints with the Triple-A club on Tuesday. Fowler could return to the Cubs by the end of the week.UP NEXTAll-Star RHPs Noah Syndergaard of the Mets and Jake Arrieta of the Cubs face off on Tuesday. Syndergaard (9-4, 2.56 ERA) was removed from last start on July 8 due to arm fatigue. I think the rest has been good for him, Collins said. Arrieta (12-4, 2.68 ERA) is looking to get back on track after allowing four or more earned runs in three consecutive starts for the first time since 2012.---Jay Cohen can be reached at http://www.twitter.com/jcohenap ' ' '
