QUOTING HEAD COACH PAUL ZAZENSKI
"I'm extremely proud of our guys. They played very well and Air Force is a good team. One thing that cost us some trouble was picking up early yellows, forcing us to change up how we did things."

"Overall, a very resilient performance where many guys stepped into positions they had to play and I thought they did well in those moments.  It is a disappointing result, but we will get back after it on the training field and head out to California."
