AIR FORCE ACADEMY, Colo. (AP) — Kemper Hodges finished with two touchdown runs and Evan Medders added an 81-yarder to end a dominant second quarter as Air Force rolled to a 24-3 victory over San Jose State on Saturday night.

The Falcons (8-2, 4-2 Mountain West Conference) took control after a scoreless first quarter and led 17-0 at halftime.

Trajan Sinatra kicked a 33-yard field goal early in the third quarter for the Spartans (5-6, 3-4), who are one victory shy of qualifying for a bowl game.

Hodges capped the scoring on a 7-yard run with 6:17 remaining in the game.

Hodges threw incomplete on his only pass but finished with 117 yards on 26 rushes. Medders was 0 for 3 through the air but tallied 146 yards on 13 carries. Owen Allen carried 12 times for 103 yards as the Falcons gained all 452 yards of offense on the ground.
