Monmouth is probably a better team than Kennesaw State based on what they have accomplished this season. This is going to be a tough trip to Jersey and their newly rebuilt stadium.

Should be an easy win, but we will be out-coached.

What team are you talking about... the Liberty that beat Baylor or the other Liberty. Betting money is surely on Monmouth at this point. We will probably lose AND get out-coached!

Regardless of whether we win or lose, it is certain we will be out-coached.

This game is in my backyard! I was present 2 years ago and shocked at the result. It was the poorest team effort that I ever witnessed for an LU team. This year, if we lose-I will not be shocked. I'll wear my colors and root hard for the school I love but, I'm not very optimistic.

Looks like their whole team is wearing the exact same tie.

Looking at their schedule, this may be toughest team we will have played other than JSU. We had best take the same team up there that we took to Baylor.

That team got left in Waco, or Charlotte, or in a ditch. AMBER ALERT!!!

It's not going to be pretty. We might only end up with 5 wins.

If history repeats itself then we come away with a win. Gill is 4-1 on first big south road games of the season. And the lone loss came after beating Georgia State, so we obviously pulled a Liberty and we lost DJ Abnar and a few others to injury when we beat GSU. Here is hoping we right the ship.

Until we get an OL and quality running backs we'll always be a 6-5 team. In our losses over the last few years, the disparity in rushing yards compared to the opponents is profound. We can't run and we can't stop the run.

I think we have some talent at RB but we need to stop the RB by committee stuff. When a runner starts to get in a rhythm, he then sits out the next two series and loses it.
