Battle in the trenches! 😤💨 It's strength on strength as CUSA's leading rusher, James Jones, meets a Liberty run defense allowing a league-low 105.1 yards per game. Annette and Pat break down the ground game collision on Matchup Spotlight! 🏃‍♂️🧱

[Patrick Kelly @Patrick_KellyII]

You are absolutely a legend.

[Bob Alvis @TheSportsBuffet]

People roll out red carpet for me (I’m just flattered most give me a table and chairs and rosters) but @predgate24 goes above and beyond (I am not a legend but I appreciate the compliment)

IMO - the reputation is a MASSIVE factor.

A lot going on there lol

[Jon Manson @JCManson]

Our market isn’t getting us into a different conference. We need something else.

Our academics aren’t getting us into a different conference. We need something else.

Reflecting on .@LibertyFootball win last night

👍Good: continued dominance n run game. No TOs. Lock down D in Qs 1-3. Kicking game
👎Bad: Q4 O&D. D allowed 2 TDs/156 yds/8.7 yds/play.
😵‍💫Ugly: Penalties (recurring theme since 2023) and missed tackles in Q4.

Clean up b4 SHSU!

🔑for .@LibertyFootball v @Delaware_FB

🔒Own early downs: Shaky run game (98/gm), vs. QB2. Get to 3rd & long/Make him beat U

🗺️Plan 4 pressure - Del. 7th n nation n sacks. They mix fronts, stunt, sim pressure. OL needs solid plan & communicate

Go Flames

An aggressive defense versus a surging offense. Could be a fun one!
