Head coach Gary Patterson said he has been preparing his defense all season for Air Force's triple option offense, and that experience will be necessary against the nation's best rushing attack.
Patterson said this is probably the best Air Force offense he's seen since TCU joined the Mountain West Conference in 2005. The Air Force Falcons are averaging just under 350 yards per game rushing this year and rank second in rushing touchdowns.
The Air Force offense is led by junior quarterback Tim Jefferson, a fast quarterback who knows the system well, Patterson said.
