This system is so far from the norm, there's truly no way to fully prepare for it. As evidenced, when the last time Coach D started preparing the team at the opening of camp for the THIRD game of the yr? "One game at a time" is a core principal of coaching, yet they started dedicating small segments of practice to Air Force back in early August.
As they said during the broadcast, they gave the defense a look at playing against the cut blocking, but couldn't turn the scout oline loose 100% for fear hurting somebody from friendly fire. Name another system where you to worry about that (and, quick, name the last triple option team they played).
They spent a lot of time that 1st qtr in learning their natural tendencies, and anyone who plays sports knows, when you're thinking, you aren't playing fast. 2Nd are was a huge improvement, which means they're adjusting and figuring it out.
Relax.
