Air Force got on the board two minutes into the second quarter when Connor Dietz found Ty MacArthur for a 10-yard touchdown pass to cap off a six-play, 62-yard drive. Fresno State added a field goal two minutes later before getting another touchdown with under four minutes left to play in the half.
