Seemed like some sort of glitch during 2001, but the video that was shown prior to the entrance: I don't get all the use of students at the beginning of it, like trying to have some storyline to it. Then it ends with a quiet close shot of a guy's eyes? Totally not getting it. It seemed to drain energy as much as anything. Don't tell me a story: just make it loud with football highlights synched to good upbeat music. Go to the FBS and BCS level schools, and they do it right!
From what I understand, marketing is in charge of the entrance video now. That probably explains it.

Also - will someone please teach Mike Tilley the names of our players. Josh Woodlum doesn't play for us and he didn't go to Cape Spring High School. He should also know how to pronounce Nicky Fualaau's name. I don't expect perfection but I expect the announcers for the Liberty produced game should know the names of the Liberty plays.

Better get used to it. From what I'm hearing, he's going to be butchering...er...broadcasting the basketball games this year too.

As for the game it was definitely a disappointment. I was one who had higher hopes following the strong showing against Wake. Not unrealistic expectations, just that we would be able to beat Norfolk St at home. And its consistent results like this that really make me wonder about all the FBS talk. Sure anyone can move up, just look at Buffalo. But if you want to have a reasonable chance at success on the next level you may want to show some success on your current level. Just saying.

Why was my message edited before being posted :?: I typed l o l and all that other stuff was added to my post as if I was the one that typed it. I very much don't appreciate someone putting words out there as if I said it. And I don't appreciate my message being edited as if I don't have the freedom to type what I want.

They don't know which games they will lose, although there are a few that they can guess, but they know they'll drop a few. Some years they will drop more then others. This is the way it goes.
To use your examples. OSU fans certainly didnt have the same expectations last year that they have this year and their expectations next year will be greater than this year. Conversely, Boise State probably has lower expectations this year than they did last year. SEC fans are just crazy. Les Miles wins a National Championship and a lot of LSU fans wanted to see him fired. We had expectations to go to the Playoffs last year and are all disappointed. Tis year we expect to be competitive and we are.
how dare you Haize. I believe at the beginning of every season we will win the FCS championship, because that is what real fans do. You are a lost cause and a terrible fan! :P

Mainly the on air talent, the other things (graphics, etc.) are minor problems but not nearly as glaring as the on air talent.

That's what we get for trying to find out what the sensor message was about! Same thing happened to me- I edited, then after that didn't work, I just deleted it.

How about that 2nd down pass to the corner? Anyone remember Robbie Justino and his often successful passes like that? Passing to really tall receivers and tight ends made it work for him pretty regularly.

It's just Scorcho being funny. We noticed it last week. I think it's pretty clever of him. :lol:

It's not typing like a teenage girl, it's standard lingo these days. Everyone texts using " l o l".

It's pretty dumb to get treated like crap when you are a brand new member to the board. You don't even know who I am or how I have contributed to Liberty. So stop getting on your high horse and treating the board like some exclusive society. Let it be fun for everyone and don't try to censor and edit posts.

It's stupid in the first place that a message has to be approved before it goes up for everyone to see.

This was the MEAC. This was Norfolk State. They were down 35-7 at the end of 3rd quarter to ODU in FCS playoffs last year. Give them props for coming to Lynchburg and handing us another L.

Dude, the board automatically censors everyone who types l.o.l. You aren't being singled out. Calm down. Lol.

• The Flames have now lost three games in a row for the first time since the 2006 season.
We've only played two games so far this season...I guess this person decided we are going to lose to Montana... :?

We lost the last game of last year. One plus two equals three.

I wouldn't be banking on that internship if you're publicly calling out the department on FF. They don't like that.
