The Air Force Falcons have a new competitor to look forward to in the upcoming season– the Boise State Broncos.
The Broncos are joining the Mountain West Conference, a move that could enhance their national title hopes. The past few seasons have been very frustrating for the team, which has failed to land a spot in the BCS championship game despite their winning records.
