Air Force Outlasts UNM 42-24

Box Score | Season Statistics

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. --- Air Force rushed for 478 yards, the most allowed by UNM all season, and the Falcons took advantage of two big third quarter turnovers to turn a four-point game into a big lead as the Falcons kept their bowl hopes alive with a 42-24 win at Falcon Stadium. The Lobos will officially not qualify for a bowl for a second straight season.

The Lobos once again recovered three fumbles, and once again returned one for a touchdown, but it just wasn't enough of an answer to an Air Force offense that only punted twice in the game.
