Last Minute Air Forces Musings

With Louis Nix not making the trip out to Colorodo Kona Schwenke will do just fine.

The Falcons quarterback choices; a fourth string with no starts or a third string QB coming of a concussion.

Expect Air Force to run the ball as they are ranked 121 in passing averaging 102.3 yards a game, as opposed to their running game ranked 12 at 268.6 yards a game.

What to do with Hendrix in this game?  With the Falcons defense giving up over 37 points a game good for 116^th in the country Rees should not have to play the entire game.

Who to watch out of the backfield?  Air Force have five backs with at least 40 carries this season,  all of which have at least 200 yards each.

If Jaylon Smith follows his assignments against the option he could have a career (early career) game.

 

Is there any chance Air force can win (or even keep it close for that matter)?  If the Falcons get up early and the Irish are forced to play from behind, Rees goes out early and Hendrix, well plays like Hendrix and a lot of luck.
