Predictions
The Air Force Falcons (8-3, 5-2 MW) will look to finish their regular season with a win when they face the Boise State Broncos (6-5, 5-2 MW) on Friday afternoon. The game will be played at Albertsons Stadium and is scheduled to begin at 4 p.m. ET.
The Falcons are coming in as three-point favorites after a 31-27 loss to UNLV. The Broncos are coming off a 45β10 win over Utah State as five-point favorites.
Boise State is 6-4 in their last 10 games against Air Force.
The Falcons are not playing well at the moment and have been losing three games in a row coming into this game. They will try to break their streak with a win over the Broncos, which would give them their ninth win in their last 12 games.
Air Force is averaging 28.4 points per game. They are throwing 84.5 yards per game and rushing for 282.1 yards.
Jensen Jones completed 17 percent of his passes for 35 yards in the loss to the Rebels. He also had 19 carries for 88 yards and two touchdowns. Dylan Carson finished with 16 carries for 104 yards, while Caleb Rillos had one catch for 35 yards.
History
Boise State leads the all-time series 7β4. Despite the close calls the Broncos have had against the Falcons over the past few years, Boise State has won five of their last six meetings. Air Force’s only win in that span came in 2021 when they took on The Blue and emerged victorious 24-17.
Boise State is on board, but we’re still waiting for a response from the Air Force. After one quarter, neither team is tied with a tie, but Boise State leads Air Force 3-0.
Four games in, it’s been a real nail-biter of a season for Boise State, and they’re locked in another close battle with Air Force. Perhaps Boise State will pull away, but we predict a narrow margin.
