The Pirates didn't have too much trouble with the South Florida Bulls on the road last week as they won 44-24. QB Holton Ahlers and RB Rahjai Harris were among the main playmakers for Liberty Flames as the former passed for three TDs and 222 yards on 26 attempts in addition to picking up 35 yards on the ground and the latter rushed for two TDs and 115 yards on 19 carries. Ahlers hadn't helped his team much against the Georgia State Panthers two weeks ago, so this was a nice turnaround for him.
Special teams collected 14 points for Liberty Flames. K Jake Verity delivered a perfect 3-for-3 game.
Meanwhile, it was a close one, but last week Syracuse sidestepped the Temple Owls for a 31-29 victory. FB Nelson Smith was the offensive standout of the contest for Syracuse, rushing for two TDs and 120 yards on 20 carries. That nimble footwork stands out as the first time Smith has hit the 100-yard rushing mark this season.
The Pirates are expected to lose this next one by 3. However, those who like betting on the underdog should be happy to hear that they are 2-0 against the spread when expected to lose.
Liberty Flames suffered a grim 42-10 defeat to the Midshipmen when the two teams previously met in September of last year. Maybe Liberty Flames will have more luck at home instead of on the road? Watch the matchup and check back on CBS Sports for all the details.
