There's an appalling lack of Air Force Football GIFs on Twitter, so HERE'S A GIF FROM AIR FORCE ONE INSTEAD.
IT'S AIR FORCE DAY.
IT'S AIR FORCE DAY.
Surge and rebuild, surge and rebuild. Troy Calhoun's had a very *cyclical* tenure at Air Force. But last year's surge was the best yet. This team was REALLY good the second half of last year.
THE AIR FORCE OFFENSE RADAR KINDA LOOKS LIKE A PLANE.
(The Air Force offense was awesome last year, btw, and returns 3 of the main reasons why: QB Donald Hammond III, RB Kadin Remsberg and LG Nolan Laufenberg.)
Per SP+, Air Force had its best offense since 1998 AND its best defense since 2010. With no lineman >275 pounds, they were excellent against the run. Swarmed and swarmed.
This teams has lots of continuity, except in one spot: the secondary. And with 7 relative tossups on the schedule, how well the DBs fare could be the difference between 5-7 and 10-2.
Air Force's last 4 hires: Troy Calhoun, Fisher DeBerry, Ken Hatfield ... and Bill Parcells.
Also, 1985: underrated Weird Year. If Air Force scores 1 more TD vs BYU, we're having an argument between 11-1 OU and 12-0 AFA for the title. (OU probably wins that argument, but still.)
