Slightly different look this time because for the first time against an FBS opponent, we are favored.

Opening line is -4

Liberty Class of 2009
2007 AND 2008 Big South Football Champions

I think it's safe to assume how Flameshaw voted. He's just so...

This is the first game all season I'm going into expecting a win.

We win by 7 to 10 point. We are far from good enough to blow an FBS team out on the road.

We are on the road. They are coming off a bye. We haven't played well two games in a row yet. Homecoming. We aren't sneaking up on them after beating their in state rival just last week. I hope I am wrong but I think this adds up to an L.

Believing LU Basketball is on the verge of something great since 1991. The Cubs won a World Series so why not LU to the Sweet Sixteen?!

We were the first half against UNM. I really think the climate played into it.

There is no way we dominate like that again.

Barrett just can't crack depth chart. I asked Wimbo about Best today at the press conference. He re-aggravated his knee injury during his redshirt season, which I didn't know.

Wimbo - "We've seen improvement. It's all about him continuing to trust the process. That can be tough. He was a highly recruited young man, had SEC offers. We know he can play, and mentally we can tell he has that presence. It's just about trusting the process. You can't ever put a timetable on that when it comes to young men and knee injuries, but I can tell you he's working hard."

Interesting. Hard to believe Barrett can't crack the depth chart but i have not seen him since camp. That's tough to hear about Best. You would like to see him as the future shutdown corner with Peters being a senior and Wilson only having 1 more year. Faulks is solid but i'm not real impressed with Matthews and Donaldson. Sounds like Scruggs is coming on. I see why we are hitting juco db's heavy now.
