There's a better chance of me losing 50 pounds, winning the lottery, and buying Liberty by sun down than us making the playoffs.

I hate to get off topic here but does anyone know if the Gardner-Webb game has been moved from 7 p.m. to 1? Both the Big South and ESPN sites have it listed as a 1 p.m. start but libertyflames.com still says 7? Anyone know anything about this?

The GW game was originally scheduled for 1. It has since been moved to 7 in order to be on MASN. The places saying 1 probably haven't updated yet.

Thanks Manson I appreciate that. With two sisters that both graduated from Gardner-Webb and a mom that grew up in the area this one is pretty big in my family. I'm looking forward to being there to see the Flames pull this one out to give me family bragging rights for another year.

Dang I was just asking a scheduling question which is totally different than counting wins before they happen. I'm sorry I haven't hopped aboard the bitterness bandwagon. I'm not sure there would be any seats left anyway it seems pretty full.

VMI is a better team then last year...their running attack speaks for itself...but it should not have been a game where 1 or 2 breaks their way end up in a different outcome

That's how a lot of their games have been this year. A couple breaks our way, penalties called that should've been, etc and it could've been a whole different story.

I seriously think that if we didn't get that safety they would have never gotten within 2 scores. Up until that point they had nothing going.

how many in front of us lost? If not many then we could very well fall out of the top 25
