Both teams SOS will get better AF has a few teams at the end that will have good records and maybe ranked. Now if what you mean is no G5 team should be ever considered then just say that. I personally would love to see AF and Army and Navy as well drop to the FCS. I know we would do extremely well there.
I have heard from people in the AFA athletic program that they have a hard time getting big name schools to sign up for hone and away out of conference game week 1 or 2 game against them. Three reasons they said for this was first AFA does not have the home stadium size worth it. Second teams don’t want to. Waste time prepping in the off season for the wishbone offense. Lastly and related to number two wishbone can be problematic to deal with and the risk of losing is not worth it for big schools. Also, Air Force has two “mandatory” out of conference games each year and along with the Mountain west games needed they only have two slots open at the beginning of the season. I would like to see them do like big programs and have one cupcake game still but secondly get a top 25 team on the schedule. We did have in years past at least one but like I said most aren’t interested.
Also, it is worth mentioning Air Force has no scholarship athletes ( you have a military commitments like everyone else there) , no red shirt years, no NIL and no transfer portal.

Georgia has the 13th toughest SOS for opponents yet faced (not including the possible SEC Championship Game). Air Force has the 109th. Not exactly the same.
