Liberty vs Southern Miss Game Preview

Why Liberty Will Win

The help from the transfer portal should make a huge difference right away – getting veteran QB Charlie Brewer is a nice way to keep things going. The receiving corps should be stronger than the 2021 version, the running backs are better, and the front five upgraded the talent in a big way.

It’s the other side of the ball that should take over the game.

The Flame defensive front was going to be good, and it got a whole lot better with Dre Butler coming in from Auburn for the inside to help TreShaun Clark on the end.

That’s all a problem for a Southern Miss offensive line that was totally miserable in pass protection.

Last year’s Golden Eagle attack was horrible on third downs, turned it over way too much, and …

Why Southern Miss Will Win

The offensive line should be better.

The transfer portal helped the front five with good new parts for former Liberty coach Sam Gregg raising this group up to go along with his offensive coordinator duties.

Yes, the Liberty defensive front is fine, but Frank Gore Jr. and the running backs should in for a bigger year and a good game, the receiving corps will be one of the team’s top strengths, and as long as that O line is just a wee bit better, there shouldn’t be too much of a problem keeping up the pace.

The other side got a ton of help from the transfer portal, too, with the depth getting seven new players for the rotation – the secondary that was already good is going to be fantastic.

What’s Going To Happen

Just how quickly can the Southern Miss reboot kick in?

Liberty has the talent and ability to be every bit as good as the eight-win version of last year – even without Malik Willis – but the Golden Eagles will have a far better offense, the defense should be even stronger than the version that was so good at times late in the season, and …

Liberty will get too much offensive balance in the second half to pull away. However, it’ll be a good start for Southern Miss – even if it’s the sixth year in a row with a loss in the first game against an FBS team.

If the 2022 Season had a 12-Team College Football Playoff

The best team of the worst conference would be a 3-seed if the 12-team playoff was this year. | Bob Donnan-USA TODAY Sports Maybe it was time for an expanded playoff, but the seeding is a bunch of malarkey. Beginning in 2024, a 12-team playoff will commence. The controversial format grants automatic bids to the six highest-ranked conference champions, gives first-round byes to the highest ranked four champions, and completes the field with six at-large selections. No at-large can earn a bye. First-round games, between seeds 5 through 12, are to be played on campus or at a location designated by the higher seed. In other words, should a team like Wake Forest get in and be a higher seed in the first round, they might be convinced to play in Carolina Panthers ’ stadium rather than in the Demon Deacons’ 31,500 capacity stadium. If a 12-team Playoff was held this season with the guidelines laid out above, the following is what it would look like under the current format: SEEDINGS: G...

ACC Coaches Against The Spread: Ranked From Best To Worst. Who Covers?

How good are all of the ACC head coaches against the spread? Going from best to worst, here’s who covers and who doesn’t. How do all of the ACC head coaches do against the spread, and on the road ATS, and going over on the point total? If you like to invest, here’s everything you need to know about 11 of the 14 current ACC head coaches and how they do against the lines. One important note, all of these stats only reflect how all the coaches have done on their current ACC teams . The new head coaches – Mike Elko at Duke, Tony Elliott at Virginia, and Brent Pry at Virginia Tech – aren’t a part of this because they’ve never done this before, and Miami’s Mario Cristobal gets credit for his time at Oregon before taking over the new gig.

Jumbo Package: National media have mostly written off the Tide

Set Number: X164200 TK1 Your latest Crimson Tide news and notes. Happy Friday, everyone. Bye weeks are never fun for the fans, but the team needed it this year more than any in recent memory. Hopefully they are getting healed up and ready to close strong. Exactly none of the major publications is picking Alabama to make the playoff at this point. USA TODAY: Sugar Bowl vs. TCU (Dec. 31) 247Sports: Sugar Bowl vs. TCU Sporting News: Sugar Bowl vs. TCU Bleacher Report: Sugar Bowl vs. TCU That seems like just the kind of anti-rat poison Saban desires. A pair of freshman linemen have made impacts this season. Pleasant surprise: Tyler Booker The freshman has managed to split time with two experienced guards in a platoon system rarely seen on the offensive line, where the need for chemistry and continuity typically precludes rotational substitutions. His pass-blocking grade of 86.7 from PFF is the best of any UA guard, and ranks 15th among 577 guards nationally. Top freshman:...
