Air Force 2021 football schedule announced
3/5/2021 1:01:00 PM | Football
The Mountain West released Air Force's 2021 football schedule today as part of the conference's overall schedule release.
Air Force's schedule features six home games, including the season opener against Lafayette Saturday, Sept. 4, at the Academy. The Falcons also host Utah State, Florida Atlantic, Wyoming, San Diego State and UNLV.
The Falcons' game at Navy was moved from Oct. 2 to Sept. 11 in recognition of the 20th anniversary of the 9/11 terrorist attacks. It will be just the third time the two schools have played in September and the earliest the two schools have ever met. CBS Sports will broadcast the game nationally on the CBS Television Network with a kickoff time to be determined later.
Air Force plays three of the next four games at home following Navy. The Falcons open Mountain West play, Sept. 18, by hosting Utah State. Florida Atlantic comes to Falcon Stadium the following week, Sept. 25. After traveling to New Mexico, Oct. 2, Air Force hosts Wyoming, Oct. 9. The Falcons then play at Boise State, Oct. 16, and host San Diego State, Oct. 23 before an open date, Oct. 30.
Air Force plays Army in the first college football game at Globe Life Field in Arlington, Texas, in the Lockheed Martin Commander's Classic Saturday, Nov. 6. The second game of the series will be Nov. 5, 2022 between the two.
The Falcons play back-to-back road games at Colorado State, Nov. 13, and Nevada, Nov. 20, before closing out the regular season at home against UNLV, Nov. 27. The conference championship game is Saturday, Dec. 4.
Mountain West national television partners CBS Sports and FOX Sports will now initiate a selection procedure, which will also include the shifting of particular games to Thursdays and Fridays.
Season ticket renewals will go live this coming Monday and season ticket holders can expect an email from the ticket office with more information. Fans looking to attend Air Force football games this fall can place a deposit towards season tickets here. Tickets to the 2021 Commanders' Classic played at Globe Life Field can be found here.
