Key Player Stats & Team Metrics

  • Liam Szarka (QB) leads Air Force’s dual-threat output. Through six games, he has passed for 8 touchdowns, and 3 interceptions; on the ground, he has 8 rushing TDs.

  • Cade Harris (WR / receiver) has 2 receiving TDs.

  • Third downs: Air Force converts ~ 51.4 % of third downs, while its defense allows about ~ 40.2 % conversions.

Air Force’s strengths lie in a dynamic run game and ability to sustain drives; its major weakness is defensive consistency, especially in passing downs and giving up big plays.

Wyoming Cowboys Analysis

Wyoming is coming off a 35–28 comeback win over San Jose State and will look to build on momentum, though their offense has struggled to be explosive.

Key Player Stats & Team Metrics

  • Kaden Anderson (QB) has 8 touchdowns, and 5 interceptions

  • Samuel Harris (RB) leads the rushing attack: 315 yards on 52 carries, 1 rushing touchdown.

  • Chris Durr Jr. (WR) is the top receiver: ~ 318 yards on 28 catches, 3 receiving TDs

Wyoming’s balanced defense helps them stay in games; their offense is less reliable, and they commit more penalties, which hurts consistency.

Standout Players and Key Notes

Air Force:

  • Liam Szarka is the engine of the offense; his dual-threat ability forces defenses to defend both modes.

  • Cade Harris must catch critical passes, especially when the offense needs to shift tempo.

Wyoming:

  • Kaden Anderson must protect the football, make reads quickly, and manage the game under pressure.

  • Samuel Harris needs to produce consistent rushing yardage to relieve passing pressure.

  • Chris Durr Jr. must make contested catches and convert on third downs.

Turnovers and discipline will be critical. Wyoming’s penalty issues could hurt in tight situations; Air Force’s defensive vulnerabilities leave them susceptible to big plays.

Wyoming vs Air Force Prediction Reasoning

This will likely be a high-scoring, up-tempo game. Air Force has the advantage in offensive explosiveness and the ability to lean on its run game. However, Wyoming’s defensive steadiness and improved play in recent weeks make them dangerous if they force mistakes.

With the value coming back on Wyoming, we like their superior defense and equal offense to put them in a positino to win. We will take a shot on Wyoming as an underdog.
