And when those Jucos are busts he'll then switch his strategy to pure freshman again and complain about the lack of experience again. In other words the Matt McCall playbook.

I believe the phrase you are looking for is a Bare Cupboard!

^ Ironic since 'Bare Cupboard' was a phrase used for the basketball team. :wink: :lol:

Liberty is becoming a different situation than it was before. They still have a ways to go, but with Fallwell Jr. being pushed out they're going in the right direction.

Watched them against Syracuse and they will destroy UMass. Their O-line dominated Syracuse in the trenches and they have athletes. Former UMass RB Payton Pickett does a great job for them--wish UMass still had him. Could be a nice paycheck though.

I know a lot of people (military) who have gone to Liberty, who have nothing to do with the religious part of the school. It is very military friendly but from what I've heard, not very rigorous (very easy) academically...

Liberty could very well be getting BCS bowl bid this year if there is one.

Glad Bamford is putting together a schedule. This is good news.

Vegas opening line was Liberty -43 and o/u 65.5. The current consensus line is now -38 and 58.5. Bettors must have been reading this site and the optimism of our few fans.

I’m still not sure how Liberty responds to their last minute loss to NC St. They should be top 20 and undefeated.

Agreed...............hopefully shortened quarters.....all 4 to 8 minutes each

It will be an very unchristian-like beating this time.

I would Liberty -50. In fact, I will be taking Liberty -38 and that will be over by halftime.

Good one! Wonder if he is going to be watching the game because we know he likes to watch college dudes score. :lol:

42 - 5 Liberty.
