The Air Force Falcons struggled to move the ball, but had one of the best defensive teams in America outside the Power Five. Holding opponents to just 5.1 yards per play, Thadius Blackmon led all Airmen with 67 tackles, including 9.5 for loss. Starting quarterback Haaziq Daniels threw just 76 passes all season for the triple option-based offense, but that was enough to win the Commander-in-Chief's trophy for the first time since 2016.
