Why Air Force can cover
Zac Larrier has been solid in his first season as the starting quarterback. A 6-foot senior from Youngstown, Ohio, Larrier ranks second on the team in rushing (220 yards on 43 carries). He also has scored a team-best three touchdowns and has hit 6-of-10 passes for 193 yards and a touchdown. If he had enough attempts to qualify, his quarterback efficiency rating (255.1) would lead the country.
In addition, Air Force has proven it can win away from Colorado Springs. The Falcons have won five straight games away from home overall and two straight in true road games dating back to last season. That run includes a victory over a Power 5 team, Baylor, in last season’s Armed Forces Bowl in Fort Worth. See which team to pick here.
Why San Jose State can cover
San Jose State has been tough when playing at home recently. In their last eight home games at CEFCU Stadium, the Spartans are 7-1, outscoring opponents, 261-133. The only loss over that stretch was a 42-17 loss to No. 18 Oregon State earlier this season.
In addition, San Jose State faces an Air Force offense that is not a threat to throw the ball. The Falcons rank last in all of the FBS in passing yards per game (64.3).
