Stony Brook @ Liberty

Post by LU Flames Nation »

A big game in Lynchburg this weekend as 9-1 Stony Brook comes to town looking to capture its 2nd consecutive Big South auto-bid.

As always, we have plenty of coverage for you this weekend at http://www.libertyflamesnation.com" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

A Liberty win here could throw a monkey wrench into everything. That would cause a 3-way tie at the top of the Big South with each team 1-1 head-to-head against the other two. How does the Big South propose to solve that? A coin flip is unsatisfying, yet the Big South is likely to be a one-bid conference regardless. They MIGHT get two if CCU or Liberty gets the auto-bid. (Not that Liberty would deserve one at 6-5.) Stony Brook would get the at-large, IF the committee deigns to grant one to the Big South, though I can't see for the life of me who would lose out if THAT happens. Given Stony Brook's great season, it would SUCK for them to lose a playoff berth on a coin flip....

So CCU would get it AGAIN?!?

Why does it seem like SBU and Liberty ALWAYS take it in the shorts when CCU gets involved?!?

:ohno:

You truly are an idiot for suggesting a coin flip.

Because we have a strong Dline. Bennet weakly recruited out offense.

The #6 Stony Brook Seawolves (9-1, 5-0 Big South) look to finish their 2nd consecutive season at 6-0 in the Big South, and once again capture the conference's auto-bid into the FCS playoffs. The only team standing in their way are the Liberty Flames (4-5, 3-1). Kickoff in Lynchburg on Saturday is scheduled for 3:30.

Meh. You've seen how often people here have tried to spin a FG point spread as "rolling."

I'll eat my crow. I don't know what happened in this game, other than SB likely played like garbage and Liberty gave them everything they had. Glad to be wrong though, knocks off another seed contender. :twisted:

Frankly we outplayed the Seawolves and our defense did an outstanding job shutting down Maysonet. With that accomplished, Essington tried to force things and we feasted on the results.

Ibanez - Super Safety ring a bell? You guys need us to win to get you into the playoffs. But that doesn't mean that we won't be all about cheering on Chucky South on Saturday.
