Very good season, obviously.

Today was a winnable game but some bizarre playcalling and a pretty pedestrian game from Josh was too much to overcome.

Lots of good stuff to build on for next year.

Could've and should've won this game. Bad offensive play calling at times. Bad offensive execution at times. Defense giving up two gigantic plays on an otherwise good day. Special teams with another back breaker.

Great season. Will be interesting if this is our only time ever going to the playoffs.

This was a great, program building season that saw our team reach new heights in many ways. Beating App State and Coastal Carolina at home are the spots to prove how far we have come as a program. Yeah this sucks, but man it was a fun ride!

Ugh. That hurt. I think the worst part is that we would have hosted a national quarterfinal next weekend if we eliminated one of about 6 stupid plays today.

Lots of emotional things I could say but our program made some huge steps this season. Frustrated that we couldn't win tonight because we very well could've but Villanova is a heck of a team. Excited to see where our program goes from here.

So frustrating. We should be talking about shsu. We had this. Gave up 2 huge passes. Not running on 3rd and 1, seriously?

No frustration here. I'm not happy we lost. But hey, it was a great season. We won the conference, made the playoffs, won a playoff game, and were competitive to the very end. It was a great season and we have a bright future. Way to go Flames!

Proud of the way our guys gutted it out in the cold rain. Clearly we missed plenty of opportunities and had some mental breakdowns at the most inopportune times.

I'm sick. We absolutely should have won this game. I'm prob gonna take a few days to process this. We were two bad defensive plays from hosting a playoff game against a team we could have beaten at home....

(Sigh)

I really wanted to see us pull off another one...but boy what a ride the last few weeks. Lose to CSU, then beat the number one team in the country, then beat the hottest team in the country, in THEIR building, and come up seven points short to the 6th ranked team in the country...as frustrated as I am at losing...I can't help but be proud of this team. I'll save most of my comments for the season postmortem, but I will be wearing my red under my work shirt tomorrow...been a great ride boys, can't wait for spring ball

A few boneheaded playcalls away from the next round.

UGH.

Great season, and I"m looking forward to next year, but we should still be playing. Too many mistakes on and off the field.

did they pass one time on that last drive. That's why we can't rely on the defense with the game on the line. Last week was an anomaly. Josh didn't have a good game at all. We needed to do more in the first half when we dominated. Fgs just don't do it. It's a great season but we let that one get away and a shot at a home game. It was nice for 2 weeks

This was the Flames most successful season ever. Great job team. I was looking forward to a record sitting crowd next week at the Bill. That would have been awesome.

We look to have a very good team returning next year. Things are looking up for the Flames Nation! But please run the ball on 3rd and 1 in the 4th quarter of a tie game in the rain.

We only had 64 rushing yards. They dominated the line of scrimmage on both sides of the ball, especially in the second half. They outgained us 447-246. Some fortunate turnovers kept us in this game. Woodrum didn't look great, but the oline blocked poorly. Also, Henderson's butterfingers returned. Best season for Liberty football ever, though! At least we had a chance at the end, unlike Rocco and the Spiders.

I agree that this was a great season... but... I can't help but think we could have made it to Fargo... in the semis. I wouldn't have felt so bad had we got blown out.

I can't believe we went for 2. Totally cost us the game :roll: :lol:

Great season. A lot of walls were broken down. If nothing else we've shown we belong and can play with the 'Big Boys' of FCS. If there is such a thing :mrgreen:

Make the play offs next year and we can solidity our spot.

We couldn't be expected to win a game with a Hail Mary. We aint Catholic.

The game was sloppy on both sides. Disappointed, but it was a very good season.
