Overview

  • UConn improved to 8-3 and secured its first unbeaten home season since 2010.
  • Edwards ran for 165 yards and two touchdowns, finishing the season to date at 1,031 rushing yards.
  • Joe Fagnano rushed for a score and saw his interception-free streak end at 379 attempts, going 15-of-23 for 155 yards.
  • Air Force rushed for 291 yards — including 123 from Owen Allen — but UConn’s adjusted 4-3-4 defense produced crucial red-zone stops, highlighted by a fourth-and-goal stuff.
  • Falcons starter Liam Szarka exited late in the second quarter with a hand injury, and the 3-7 loss leaves Air Force effectively out of bowl contention.
