The latest installment of "RFC Post-Season's Greetings" turns the clock back to New Year's Eve, December 31, 1985. That was when the Air Force Academy Falcons faced off against the University of Texas Longhorns in the now-defunct Bluebonnet Bowl at Rice Stadium in Houston. The Falcons outlasted the Longhorns 24-16 to finish the 1985 season in the Top 10 of both major polls (5th in the coaches, 8th in the Associated Press), as well as a final record of 12-1 overall.
