James Madison plays in its first bowl at the FBS level, heading to Texas for the Armed Forces Bowl. Two games ago, they were a 9-point favorite over Appalachian State but saw their undefeated season disappear in a 26-23 defeat. Air Force is always a tough matchup averaging 266.8 yards rushing, the second-best in the nation. Air Force was an underdog in the Armed Forces Bowl last year but whipped Baylor, 30-15, with 276 rushing yards. And two years ago in the Responder Bowl, the Falcons were a one-point favorite over Louisville and won, 31-28, with 422 total yards. Play Air Force on the moneyline as a Max Play.
