Don't worry, Troy Calhoun hasn't abandoned the triple-option attack the Academy has been famous for since the early 80's, he's just added another twist. Like the Falcons needed another one of those.

Liam Szarka already has eight touchdown tosses through six games. The sophomore signal caller from Aurora, Colo., has also thrown for 1,025 yards. He's completing nearly 64% of his passes, too.

Five cadets have already eclipsed the 100-yard receiving mark. Cade Harris, all 5-foot-9 of him, leads the way with 492.

Need a little perspective?

Wyoming's Kaden Anderson has 110 more passing attempts than Szarka and only 244 more yards through the air. He has also thrown eight touchdowns and is connecting on less than 56% of his passes.

The Cowboys have four receivers who have more than 100 yards under their belts. Chris Durr Jr. has the most with 318 yards on 28 grabs. Jaylen Sargent, Samuel Harris and Jackson Holman all reached 100-plus yards on the season in last Saturday night's 35-28 victory over San Jose State.

Cody Tucker and Jared Newland take a look back at that wild win over the Spartans and look ahead to yet another Front Range battle with the Falcons. You might have heard, the Pokes are rolling out some new threads for the Border War:
