San Jose State VS Air Force 3RD QTR | NCAAF Football Week 2 Game Highlights SEP 7, 2024

which as you know for an Air Force team that's their bread and butter a short-handed Air Force Team to begin half near the line of scrimmage actually that was Aiden Calver on the outside the senior from San Diego done such a nice job rallying to the football Jordan Pard obviously jumped in that first half on first down not much more on second down with Roman Bradley so this is the exact to begin half two and it feels like we stepped right back into the issues that they were facing in the first half tried to get on the perimeter on first down the offensive line and like you said Chris another third and long opportunity for this defense those early down comeback Engle near the sticks tackled immediately he's going to be shy of the first down by a yard DJ that hitch to the boundary they have missed Brandon Engle to see him back in action for Air Force but went for it in this fourth down and one can they get the interior push needed that front part of the ball to touch the 35 yd line coming off of a Touchback and that's indeed what happens and if you know typically where quarterback sneak comes from didn't pick it up on the first fourth down conversion this time they do they picked that one up on Fourth fullback dive Bradley Aniston offense needs to pick up more than two yards you want that ideally to be in that four to five yard range right there that's when this offense and eight you're still trying to get this to a third and short where is Kade Harris that's still the guy picks the pitch dances in traffic and tiptoes to the 41 yd line gain of went to Brandon Engel on the hitch route and proven they can throw the football effectively out fman the tight end is at the top of the screen Calver Mo third down bu tosses Harris side steps and slides out of bounds Air Force and tanel latu laun number four all the way to the sideline and not able to pick this up even though lotu doesn't make the tackle his effort that's what caused 11 on third Downs Coleman to return Luke frier is the Air Force punter takes a fortunate San Jose State bounce crawling to the sideline at the 14 one first down on their first drive of the second half sopore campaign for the Texans I mean Brown had the most yards in a San Jose State day last 12 attempts Air Force has taken him out of the Rhythm Floyd s the fourth un for to gain a few that outside linebacker spot with David sanago Elijah Sanders number 18 and 49 they the defender that they walk down in this front on a really nice job tonight for Air Force look out for Chalk in the second half he had two set down at the 30 yd line he does have the first down oaro II the inside linebacker on the tackle speed it up spread it out and a quarterback draw Brown crawls 30 and we talked to offensive coordinator Craig stutsman and he mentioned the tempo is a big part of the spr Justin lockart right down the middle at the Big Air Force logo gets into the plus territory coach susman talked about we don't want to just run rpos and throw bubbles out to the field we want to utilize the middle of the field tight ends as well good job hand off to Floyd chalk the fourth the Grambling transfer right back to the line of scrimmage tell that was a theme coming out of half three carries for Floyd chalk for an offense that had less than 10 yards in the first half still struggling to run this game oh San Jose State in the first three drives had two 75 yd touchdown drives second down and 10 Jabari Bates bounces off a couple and Air Force it's obviously totally different schemes but it's the same problem for both offensive line groups right hayen and Dro and right now for San Jose State you saw a good example of it right there not getting any push backwards for third down nine to go zip left side and korse was the game back lot of expectations for for Boise State there at the top and looking good against Georgia Southern as well there's good depth in this conference not many teams in the nation have had more FBS returning production percentage Air Force last in the country and in this game they're missed few Dylan Carson Terrence G all out for this game and we've seen the fullback dive Place Bradley the fullback after a gain of four on first Albert in motion Bradley one of the better fullback runs that we've seen for Air Force this is staying on schedule and it may not look like much but a foury game that gets you to a deep in their territory they will go for this two downs here you would expect for Air Force to try and pick up this third and one thir Downs quarterback sneak first down Air Force and your defense is playing so well on the other side get this back back to a tie ball game drive down the field have a good sustained Drive you're already in this game it's only a ones score thing here on this drive whether it's a touchdown or field [Applause] goal can the offense specific play it's a big first down play fullback dive defense reads it again as Bradley gains one give Bradley two on first down Down Chris Lewis Taylor mcard Colorado of the Season second latu gain of three third down coming up latu it's another list him as a different structure with this defense it's typically a three down lineman front they want to have that three safety look sometimes player but your team faced Air Force in a bowl game in your career imagine just the amount of time it takes to prepare on third down he gets nothing lotu again involved San Jose States same thing fighting off blocks really nice job Jordan Pard has done the same thing tending his team off the field another opportunity for San Jose State on offense so Eric again watches it bounce and roll excellent job on Specialties for Air Force and might not be the task all [Music] night a Bo looking Skies it doesn't get much more de as we take a look at the QB comparison brought to you by Sonic Taylor you're a quarterback but give credit to the defense struggles and I had it in my notes for their offense for San Jose State feast or famine and that's what we've seen tonight they've hit the chunk plays the having a hard time protecting him at Brown this is a critical Drive backed up for San Jose State here say Feast are famine right now Santa Floyd chalk the fourth on first down a run up the middle and for Air Force a week ago and today Air Force if they can force a three and out they certainly some sort of turnover this gets your momentum back on the side of Air Force big opport second down and six batted and then a flag is down in the end zone Kanan was the receiver our referee is Patrick Foy 61 of the offense with targeting that P is pass to the goal the team's top offensive lineman Captain the guy that was scratched in pregame warm-ups we looks like we're getting a timeout here with both teams coming off the field backing that offense up now in the left side of the screen number 61 ball comes out of em Brown's hand and it is tipped I think they hard to tell there they're saying he came in with that late Defender up in the air and then the late push and they might be look Endzone it would be a safety but instead with it looking like from that replay it being outside of the end zone curious if toivo after he shoved if they're looking at David Santiago there's not targeting from that angle the timing of that looks bang bang I'm not sure that that's that would warrant from targeting especially not sure the targeting has been confirmed number 61 targeting is confirmed t his night is done and with the penalty of San Jose State's next game against kenesa states that is a massive blow for San they have and now backed up deep in your own End Zone with your best offensive lineman out is a huge a draw and chalk swallowed up fourth down running long Bon Z Dr gets another a targeting mechanic like that too often like still wonder if there was a Santiago thought maybe that was where the unnecessary roughness came from but didn't see there where targeting would have been warrant huge opportunity with what is likely a short field coming up angle calls fair catch back pedals course is going to get something done on offense right now as good a time as any sequence credit our truck great job finding the look of what got toivo disqualified it's the Dive Right Here you see the 15 yards no matter what there but then lowering the crown of the helmet to a defenseless Defender you check all the boxes that's an easy error and now a huge opportunity for Air Force a short field on offense finally for this Falcons off in the first half against kennol state in the next San Jose State game meanwhile the fullback dive for quite the night with a lot of Touches for Roman Bradley and Chris you've touched on it just the number of guys that are out for Air Force up and doing a nice job at that fullback spot team High 12 carries from Midfield second down and three traditional forward progress gives him the 48 one yd sh of the first Robert rahimi goes bought in immediately they really think highly of Robert rahimi a Jim rat and a film junkie excellent in this situation Bret sneaks should have the first [Music] down see a little bit of personnel some of the offensive injuries that are out Kate F Terence G Dylan Carson out in that first quarter a week ago get a big play from right around Midfield they like to take chances here you called it Taylor to the air they go it's a check down in it'll be second down there it was trying to get ahead of the sticks give John bu the opportunity and another drop from Air Force just 21 yds guns it down the seam but over the head of everybody and incompletes so two passes entire play is schemed up for Brandon Engle they move him in motion to the right side John bé is under duress not able to again just an over great pass on Third and 10 it is a blitz picked up wide throw and incomplete coming back to the ball and it's Fourth Down theme of all three of these plays the pass plays John bu getting hit you see not great protection in the interior hit again by TOA traction on the ground then they go to three straight passes they had the opportunity on second down that was a Miss to Brandon Engle that was your home run play line after the 47 yd punt Tuesday night 10 Eastern travel around the world of continues to March onward right here on CBS Sports Network college football they go big picture we can do the same in the booth Taylor look at ahe you got a crystal ball show it off what's going to happen they will to me be one of the top five Conference champions cam Ward how good was he in week one against Florida today I still think Georgia is the best team in college football saw Oregon State on that note Oregon State next on first down gains two can be G the safety at the Achilles injury third quarter winding down that'll be the final play it was since then the defenses have
