The 2023 bowl season continues Saturday afternoon with an intriguing matchup between James Madison and Air Force in the Armed Forces Bowl in Fort Worth, Texas. Normally, James Madison wouldn’t be eligible for the postseason given its recent move from the FCS to the FBS, but the Dukes made the cut since there weren’t enough six-win teams to fill the spots ahead of them. 

James Madison, which went 11-1 and didn’t lose a single game in regulation, didn’t get to play for the Sun Belt championship despite a victory vs. eventual champion Troy and a better conference record than East division winner Appalachian State. Ironically, App State is the only team to beat JMU this year, doing so in overtime on Nov. 18. 

Air Force looked like it was racing its way towards a potential Mountain West title and rocketed up the rankings with an 8-0 start to the season, but the Falcons completely imploded down the stretch. They lost their last four games in a row — dropping two against teams that didn’t qualify for a bowl in Army and Hawaii — and fell out of the MWC race. The Falcons would love to regain their early-season form and send what was once a promising season out on a high note.
