2019 Air Force Season Preview

The last two seasons have produced lots of skepticism on the Academy base in Colorado Springs, however with a team growing in experience many believe that Air Force can make a strong push back towards the top of the Mountain West Conference and bowl eligibility. Coach Calhoun will be leading his 11th Falcons team on the gridiron this year and has been as successful as the young men he has had the privilege coaching in that time. Calhoun has been the standard of coaching in college football being recognized as Mountain West coach of the year in 2007. Despite the pedigree of Calhoun’s resume this year more than most feels like a make or break season having not one the Commander In Chief trophy since 2016 and missing out on Bowl season for at least the past two years.
