Overcoming an early 18-point deficit, the Air Force Falcons defeated the South Alabama Jaguars 45-21 to win the 2016 Arizona Bowl.
South Alabama jumped out to a 14-3 lead after the first quarter thanks to back-to-back 75-yard drives in which quarterback Dallas Davis had two completions for 75 yards and 51 yards.
A sophomore this season, Davis was largely mediocre during the regular season. He threw for 2,461 yards with 10 touchdowns and 11 interceptions, but he looked unstoppable early against Air Force's defense.
Davis would extend the Jaguars' lead to 21-3 early in the second quarter with a four-yard touchdown run, putting the Falcons' back up against the wall.
