As the Liberty Flames prepare to host the Old Dominion Monarchs at Williams Stadium, fans are buzzing with anticipation for what promises to be an electrifying game of college football.

In recent matchups, the Flames have shown a propensity for strong offensive plays. On November 11, 2017, they dominated with a staggering 628 total yards against Presbyterian Blue Hose. Their rushing game was particularly impressive as they amassed 317 yards with an average of over six yards per carry. This ground dominance coupled with three rushing touchdowns is something that fans can expect the team to replicate against ODU.


The passing game has also been a highlight for LIB; during their November 4th clash against Duquesne Dukes, they managed to throw for 211 yards and secured a touchdown through air assault. With such balanced offensive tactics, it's clear that the Flames have multiple weapons in their arsenal.


Defensively, LIB has shown moments of brilliance as well. Their ability to force turnovers was evident when they intercepted two passes and recovered two fumbles in their game on November 4th against Duquesne Dukes. This defensive prowess will be crucial in containing ODU's advances.


However, it would be remiss not to acknowledge that every game brings its own challenges. The Old Dominion Monarchs will not make things easy for LIB; they come into this matchup determined and ready to battle every inch on the field.


The upcoming encounter is set for September 1st at Williams Stadium in Lynchburg at 6:00 PM local time (EST). Fans eager not to miss any action should tune into ESPN3 where live coverage will ensure you catch every play as it happens. With both teams looking sharp and ready for victory, this is one event you won't want to miss!
