Air Force rolls into this game on a four game winning streak, and will be motivated to face a Big 12 opponent. Air Force head coach Troy Calhoun has won four of his last five bowl games, and the Falcons have scored at least 31 points in each of those last five bowls.
Baylor is on a three game losing streak and facing a smaller conference foe. This is not a prize for a team that was in the Sugar Bowl last season, and was favored to win the Big 12 this season. The Bears also no longer have a defensive coordinator, but head coach Dave Aranda will be taking over the duties. Having this group ready to face the Air Force option attack will be a challenge. I like Air Force
