What happened

ESPN RECAP

Hammond leads Air Force over San Jose State 41-24

AIR FORCE ACADEMY, Colo. -- DJ Hammond III began the night on the sideline, resting a sore ankle. Things changed in a hurry. Making an unexpected entry after an early injury forced Isaiah Sanders to leave the game, Hammond threw a 64-yard touchdown pass and finished or led four other scoring drives as Air Force beat San Jose State 41-24 on Friday night. "Our offense has complete trust in both of those guys so whoever is up, we're behind them," said running back Taven Birdow , who rushed for 124 yards and two scores. Sanders had started in place of Hammond, who sprained his ankle in last Friday's loss at Boise State and missed practice time in the days before the San Jose State game. Sanders, however, suffered a lower leg injury during the Falcons' first drive.
