The men’s basketball team charted a landmark win when it upset the then No. 14 ranked Air Force Falcons at Daniel Meyer Coliseum, Feb. 24. It was the first victory over a ranked opponent for the Horned Frogs since they upset the then No. 10 Louisville Cardinals, February 17, 2004.

The Frogs beat the Falcons 71-66; a month earlier Air Force beat TCU 72-39.

The victory knocked the Falcons down to No. 25 and was a factor in keeping the team from earning an NCAA tournament bid.

The Horned Frogs, led by forwards Kevin Langford and Alvardo Parker and point guard Ryan Wall went on to win 13 games, more than doubling the total from the 2005-2006 campaign.

The win put an end to the longest losing streak of the season and put a breath of new life into the Horned Frogs who went on to win in the first round of the Mountain West Conference tournament.
