A look at Air Force's season so far
The 2022 season has been an up and down season for the Falcons so far. They have managed both a six game losing streak and a four game winning streak at different points, as their streakiness has not helped them maintain momentum and string together consecutive wins often.

Air Force wins the series if...
They can emulate what the teams that have given Texas issues this season did. That being to capitalize on an inconsistent pitching staff, one that struggles mightily at times in midweek games. While the Falcons don't boast a world beating offense, if they can do enough to rattle the Texas pitching staff, they could pull of a massive upset in this series.
Texas wins the series if...
They get solid starts from their midweek starters. The Longhorn lineup should be able to do their job against this Air Force pitching staff, leaving the ability to walk out of this one with a series win on the pitching. Probable starters Justin Eckhardt and Andre Duplantier II have shown flashes of being solid starters but have had their fair share of struggles as well. If they can do their job and produce solid outings, the Longhorns should feel confident in their ability to win this series.
