The game between them on Saturday was not particularly close, with Air Force falling 49-30. They haven't found any success against Boise State since Nov. 25 of 2016, this defeat making it four in a row.
QB Jack Sears hadn't helped the Broncos' cause all that much against the Utah State Aggies last week, but the same can't be said for this matchup. Sears had a stellar game for Boise State as he passed for three TDs and 280 yards on 20 attempts in addition to rushing for one TD and 36 yards. Sears' 75-yard touchdown toss to WR CT Thomas in the first quarter made for one of the most memorable moments of the evening. Speaking of playmakers, who could forget CB Avery Williams, who went all the way with a kickoff return for touchdown in the fourth quarter?
The losing side was boosted by WR Brandon Lewis, who rushed for one TD and 112 yards on ten carries.
This is the second loss in a row for Air Force and nudges their record down to 1-2. The win makes it two in a row for Boise State and bumps their record up to 2-0.
