Andrew Jurasek brings a wrestler’s edge and linebacker toughness to Air Force
Andrew Jurasek is a sophomore linebacker for Air Force in the 2026 season, listed at 5-11 and 235 pounds, and he enters the year with a blue-collar profile that fits the Falcons’ defense well. He did not see action in 2025, but his background jumps off the page: a Texas heavyweight wrestling state champion in 2025, plus 100-plus tackle production and big-play disruption as a high school senior. That kind of leverage, intensity, and physicality is exactly why he’s intriguing—he looks like a high-motor, hard-nosed fit for a program that loves disciplined, violent tackling.
