Redd was ROBBED!

Have they released officially defense stats yet for this week? I would have given Redd at least 3 sacks.

The man love is getting deep!

How about some Flamefans Awards...although they might be construed as LU biased .

What was the hardest hit on the field last night?

Best Takeaway?

Best Offensive Play/Player?

Best Defensive Play/Player?

Best Coaching Moment?

Etc.

[SuperJon]

What was the hardest hit on the field last night? Nick Hursky on the punt that caused the fumble.

Best Takeaway? Vince tipping a shovel pass and Best returning it for a touchdown

Best Offensive PlayPlayer? Not much to choose from. I'd say the bomb down the sideline in the first half.

Best Defensive Play/Player? I'm giving the player to Hursky. Yea, Vince had a great game, but most of us were so busy watching him that we didn't realize the game Hursky had. He played great.

Nice...thanks for the input, SJ. I wasn't at the game, so it is cool to get the input from the folks who were actually there. Any way somebody could splice the game footage to get a highlight reel of the game up on youtube?


Need some Flamefans names for these &/or weekly "Monday Morning" poll? Maybe a sticky to keep a running tally during the season?

[Chris Lang]

I'm going to agree with Jon here. Vince Redd wasn't even Liberty's defensive POW. He was good, but Hursky was all over the place.

[spc0506]

Yea, Hursky had better game stats than the LB from VMI who won Big South defensive player of the week, but I guess they can't give them all to Liberty. Hursky's hit on the punt return was absolutely awesome! What made Redd so spectacular was that whenever he made a hit or a play of any kind you felt like he just killed someone. I have no doubt that Tusculuum players were doing anything posssible to stay away from Redd's position. It might have helped create a few more plays for Hursky ... I'm not taking anything away from Hursky ...He DID make the plays!
