Red is so right but I'm with Andy on this one. Sure, we haven't beaten anybody. Even worse, we also lost to a team that isn't anybody. But Liberty hasn't beaten anybody either.
My faith is with the defense. I think we win this one. The O will look better than they did against the school in Piscataway that I will not name.
I expect Liberty to focus on Tucker and make us beat them through the air. We will "liberate" them from that strategy and possibly of the bad pun I just made as well. I don't expect an air show but I expect our QB's to do enough to get points on the board.
I expect the all-time field goal record holder, Andre Szmyt, to be the difference in this one.
24-21 in a game that will not feel as close as the final score. If hope is good enough for Andy Dufresne, it's good enough for me.
