Liberty battles Oregon on Monday afternoon in the Fiesta Bowl. The Flames finished the regular season 13-0 and earned the Group of Five spot in the New Year's Six Bowl games. It is the first-ever Fiesta Bowl for the Flames and they will be looking to pull off a huge upset over Oregon. The Flames offense was their strength this season, as they scored at least 31 points in all but one of their games. They punctuated a great season with a big 49-35 win over New Mexico State in the C-USA championship game. It was their first-ever conference championship in FBS and now they are looking to finish undefeated for the first time.

I am guessing that Jerry Falwell Jr, former Liberty president, is probably watching the game...
I never expected to see Liberty in a big bowl game like Fieta Bowl...
The officiating is absolutely dismal.
But LU a came to play.
Watched the build up on social media.
The majority of our state universities hate Liberty Unkvsrsity and all it stands for.
I expected that. The Deep State will not allow a team like Liberty to win.
Judging from the crowd noise, it seems quite a few Liberty fans showed up.
Some of these stadiums are less than half full for the New Years Bowl games. Sad
Liberty University certainly has the money! What a great campus!!!
My son’s hockey team had their college ACCHL hockey tournament there two years ago (which his team won).
I couldn’t believe the great facilities for such a small school. Beautiful hockey rink, great football stadium, indoor football practice field, the pools, etc.
My son wouldn’t have been happy there because they are so strict. But I’m happy that kids have that kind of quality choice.
what has college football done to the bowl system? Its sad.........
Saw some of it at lunch time. Liberty doesn’t have a prayer in the game.
Only going to get worse with the expanded playoffs next year. Going to effect late season games as well
Agree. Crazy over matched by Oregon. Not even close
Good grief, Bud Light ads are back in 2024; a whole sports bar drinking Bud Light? LOL.
Top 10 Excuses For This Year’s Bowl Losers:
Oregon is pounding them into a rout....
“I am guessing that Jerry Falwell Jr, former Liberty president, is probably watching the game...”
Watching the game at poolside.
Oregon is just too good...
LSU vs Wisconsin game is more interesting...Closer game...
Very funny...I do remember the scandal with his wife...
Watching by himself? His wife is in the hotel room...With someone? Probably not...I am sure that she learned her lesson...
Checking out the lSU/Wisconsin game...thanks.
What are the big games? Michigan?
Sorry, I'm an Oklahoma Sooners graduate and fan....
And Peyton Manning is pushing that piss water
The only game that interests me today is Michigan - Alabama. As a lifelong Buckeyes fan, I am of course rooting for Alabama against the cheaters.
Liberty is getting blown away like Florida State was.
