The Lab’s result test
Air Force Falcons won by 5 points. Q2 supplied the largest scoring swing in the winner’s favor, a +11-points period. The chart shows the result’s path; the box score helps explain what created it.
Navy Midshipmen produced 253 total yards; Air Force Falcons produced 270. Yardage describes how much ground was gained, not whether the most valuable drives were finished.
Air Force Falcons committed 2 giveaways against the opponent’s 1. The winner still had to overcome a worse giveaway count.
The next test is repeatability. Separate staying on schedule from long gains, then examine field position and drive finishing. A large yardage total can coexist with missed scoring chances; a short field can make a modest drive valuable.
