Liberty Bounced Back

After losing two straight games the Liberty bounced back in a big way in the last game Middle Tennessee. The offense had quite the game putting up 37 points and they ended up winning by 20 points.

Liberty overall is averaging 30.9 points while their defense is giving up 22.6 points per game. The offense is ranked 47th in the league while the defense is ranked 52nd in all of college football. Liberty will meet Western Kentucky and Sam Houston after this game.

Another Down Year for UMass

UMass has two wins overall his season but mostly it has been downhill for this team. The last game for UMass came against Mississippi State and it wasn’t a good game as they scored 20 points, while the defense gave up 45 points. One problem for UMass is they don’t have a clear-cut quarterback. They played three different quarterbacks in the last game and not one really stood out. AJ Hairston completed 7 of his 11 passes for 62 yards, zero touchdowns, and one interception. 

UMass overall this season is averaging 19.2 points while their defense is giving up 31.7 points per game. The offense is ranked 120th in the league while the defense is ranked 106th. In this game, the offense is going to need to get going. UMass will face Georgia following this one.

Liberty vs UMass Prediction

UMass still hasn’t figured out who they want to play at quarterback and that is going to let them down in this game. UMass in the last game gave up 45 points to Mississippi State and it’s going to be even worse here. Slater is going to have a huge game for Liberty and that is going to be the difference here. UMass is going to struggle to get the offense going here, and Liberty will cover the spread here.
