AIR FORCE ACADEMY, Colo. (AP) — No. 25 Air Force added some air to the nation’s top-ranked running attack and Jonathan Warzeka returned a kickoff 100 yards for a touchdown in a 49-27 rout of Colorado State on Saturday.
Tim Jefferson threw for 160 yards on 5 of 9 passing and hooked up with Zach Kauth for two scores. He also set up the Falcons’ first two touchdowns with completions of 51 and 39 yards as Air Force (5-1, 3-0 Mountain West) celebrated its first game as a ranked team in seven seasons with a big win.
The Falcons’ first three touchdown drives averaged just over a minute thanks to Jefferson’s big throws and two takeaways by defensive back Reggie Rembert that set up the short field against the Rams (1-5, 0-2).
