It's like an unwritten rule. There's no set punishment. It's all about accountability to one another. It's being able to look at another guy and when he says he didn't drink this weekend, you can believe him. You've got to be a better person and a better player for the team. I wouldn't be surprised if we asked for a player's dismissal, because that's how strongly we feel. <br>Bryan Blew echoes this deep feeling,  We work too hard, we are too dedicated, we put too much into this program to give up our season to alcohol. I think it is one of the things that will make a difference for us. <br>Unique leadership began evolving as early as last May. Chance and freshman linebacker Anthony Schlegel organized 15 other players to walk in the  Relay for Life. This effort raised over $1,100 for the American Cancer Society. Talk about Being an Eleven!<br>Bryan Blew was moved to back-up quarterback in mid-August. He had been a wide receiver last spring and in fall drills. Coach DeBerry felt his Falcons needed more depth and that Chance might need help in his new role as starting quarterback. DeBerry praises Bryan:  His unselfishness and leadership are tremendous. He is a great example for our team of doing whatever makes the team better. <br>The Falcon's first test came against Northwestern. Chance rushed for two touchdowns and passed for another as Air Force routed the Wildcats 52-3. The Falcons had 476 yards rushing and led 38-0 at halftime. This game established Air Force as the number-one rushing team in the nation, a position they still hold at this writing. Chance raised some eyebrows, and some were calling his performance a fluke.<br>Unfortunately, during the Northwestern game, junior fullback Dan Shaffer injured his right knee and would be out for the season. Said DeBerry at the time,  This is a huge loss for our football team. My heart bleeds for him. I don't know if we've ever had a player work as hard to have a great season as Dan did. The fullback is critical to the success of the triple option offense, so other players had to step up. Some of you readers may recall our BFS Power Axiom #3 for Success. It is to stay focused. There are no problems, only challenges. Problems are what you see if you take your eyes off the goal. The Falcons' eyes stayed clearly focused on their goals.<br>Their resolve was to be severely tested in game two against New Mexico. Mr. Intensity Leotis Palmer stepped up. He ran for a career high of 125 yards and a touchdown as the Air Force won in overtime. DeBerry said,  I told them all, if you can't get off the field when the game's over, don't worry, we'll have carts to get you off the field. But we're going to leave it on the field. <br>Game three was against Cal, which was ranked 23rd at the time. This time Chance again showed his mettle. He rushed for 124 yards and three touchdowns. Jeff Overstreet tipped away a two-point conversion pass with 31 seconds left as Air Force beat the Bears 23-21. <br> The feeling I get in the locker room after a win . . . , said Chance, his voice trailing off with emotion.  I just look in everybody's eyes and know that everybody's spent. To think of all the things we've gone through together, and everybody aroun
