While this is fantastic, it is unoriginal.

There is nothing wrong with being REALLY humble

I just about caused a wreck driving on I4 watching the game. Three times.

Fantastic game. Fantastic result. Holding Coastal to 14 points is a massive accomplishment. Give credit to this defense, they stepped it up as a whole. Not so much on the last drive, but I'm ok with that given WE JUST WON THE BIG SOUTH!

It's nice to finally win the Big South, although this legitimate accomplishment will be watered down by our self proclaimed faux titles. This is an incredibly special moment, and these players deserve all the accolades we can toss on them. Congrats to Gill for getting us over the hump, hopefully we can make some noise in the playoffs!

I didn't think we had it in us...and I will gladly eat all of my pessimist crow. A massive win against the #1 team in all of FCS at their house with the conference championship on the line. It doesn't get any better than that.

Can't wait to head to L-Burg next weekend.

I just had a day-mare that Kyle K. and the Big South just changed the rules and decided that we actually tied Coastal for the championship because we had the same record. They used the teams' record against CSU as the new tiebreaker instead of head-to-head.

I hope I didn't just give him any ideas...

Rooster, I told them so, and I have you as a witness!

BOD TG was going nuts the second time because it was the 2nd time the clock stopped when it wasn't supposed to and it looked like the CCU play 'accidentally on purpose' lost his helmet

I think every one of us is happy we were wrong.
Can the same be said when you are wrong? Which, historically, is far more often with the :koolaid crew than the :flamingdevil

Wouldn't it be ironic if our win burst his At Large hopes?

Wimberly's quote is priceless (from Lang's article):
“Nobody believed we could do it,” Wimberly said. “Statistics probably said we couldn’t do it. But all you need is one time. I can’t say if we played tomorrow, it wouldn’t be a whole different deal. They could have dropped 80 points on us. But for one day, for 60 minutes, we were able to do what we needed to do and execute, and it manifested in a win.”

Awesome game! Glad to be in attendance. Was on the side of the field with Coastal's players, near the 50 yard line. Hardly any Liberty fans around me. They had mostly elderly fans. This win was pretty sweet. Offense and defense did well. Would have liked to see better performance by the offense on their side of the field (touchdowns). We were in their territory almost every drive. That being said, Masha made numerous clutch plays on third downs. Defense played great, limiting a very potent Coastal offense. One of their key receivers (Tyrell Blanks) went down early, and I don't think he returned. Glad we beat Coastal and Moglia!!! Another big road win!!!! Now, let's keep the momentum going through the playoffs!!!

Great gimmick. Would love to see lots of people take advantage of it. Maybe the men can got to the game while the women shop? :dontgetit

Awesome way to get over the hump. Congrats to Coach Gill and everyone involved. We make our move to retire in Lynchburg on Thanksgiving so if there is a home game we'll be there for it. Cool.

I asked this I think, but how many more commits do you guys think this
win is worth with us finally getting in the playoffs? what about recruiting in general going forward?

I don't think you can quantify it that way. One or two may say they chose LU because of it. We might get a couple of more kids interested. What it does do, and this is huge,nit takes a big piece of negative recruiting off the table. No longer can other teams say 'Yes, they have great facilities but they haven't won anything'. That will help us and I'm not sure you can put a number on that.
