I agree with points 1-3.  The points still do not equate to SU being in danger of losing.  SU is far advanced from Liberty (24-0) with an off passing day.

As top scheduling cupcakes for easy W's, I understand the philosophy, but I don't see Liberty getting out of the cupcake tier until they start winning against top 50 teams on a regular basis.  Even if they do start beating winning teams regularly, they are still not likely to garner the top level recruits to beat a top 25 teams regularly.  Finally, the cat is out of the bag, Liberty under Freeze now has game footage (a convenience many have forgotten that Babers did not have).  They will not surprise anyone (except Rutgers who would be surprised against a flag football team).

All that to say that even under the best trajectory, significantly improved recruiting, etc., etc., etc., they are not likely to catch Syracuse by the tie the three game series ends.  Besides, if I recall, the series was agreed to prior to Freeze becoming the HC, it's not like SU went after an up and coming team intentionally.  We can only schedule Rutgers so often, others want in on that gig.  The B1G wanted in on that gig so bad they invited them into the conference!

For the record, I do not see TD having two or three bad games against Liberty.  Not happening.
