BOULDER — They are not the biggest team the Colorado Buffaloes will face this year — but they might be the most disciplined.
And, in terms of the hours needed to prepare and then practice a proper game plan, the Air Force Falcons may represent one of the biggest dilemmas of the season for CU head coach Mel Tucker and his staff.
The Buffs are by no means unique in that regard. Every team that plays AFA must spend extra time preparing for the offensive scheme employed by the Falcons, one that has its roots in triple-option football but has been modified and modernized by head coach Troy Calhoun.
