The big question I have is - who will win in the trenches.
If Liberty can control the Line of Scrimmage like we did vs. Virginia Tech, we will run all over these guys.
If we struggle to protect Willis like we did vs. NC State - could be a challenge.
Does anyone have insight on how we match up on the LOS?
By biggest concern is the play of our DE’s on the edge with the Option reads and containment. Johnson has struggled with RPO at times this year. Our LB’s will be challenged as a result with lateral coverage and will need their keys to be clear. This is where I think we have the edge, however. Butler is a film room junkie and you can be certain he has wore out the reels of CCU games to date.
I do think we bring a challenge to their D with what didn’t work against NCS, the interior run and play of our OL. If Willis does what he should with the RPO reads, I think we can give their D fits on the deem seem routes and pulls to the perimeter.
It will come down to QB play ultimately.
