Aug. 1, 2007

The Troy Calhoun era has officially begun.

Calhoun is in his first season as the Falcons' head coach, replacing Fisher DeBerry who retired in December after 23 years as AFA's head coach. The Falcons return 10 starters (four on offense and six on defense) from last season's team that finished 4-8.

The Falcons open the 2007 season on Saturday, Sept. 1 against South Carolina State at noon at Falcon Stadium. Air Force begins Mountain West Conference play on the road at Utah, Saturday, Sept. 8, at 4 p.m. AFA's first home conference game is Thursday, Sept. 13, vs. TCU at 6 p.m. at Falcon Stadium. TCU was picked to win the conference by the league's media.
