On Saturday, the LU Flames once again proved they were playoff bound. Taking control of the game in the 1st quarter with a Field goal from Ben Shipps, Gardner-Webb just could not come back to win. Rashad Jennings, Jonathan Crawford and Dominic Bolden put points on the board in the 2nd quarter leading to a 24-3 lead at halftime. Jennings scared the crowd in the 3rd quarter when he recovered slowly from a run. Matt Bevins kicked a 42 yard field goal in the 3rd quarter and Shipps put up a 28 yard field goal in the 4th to seal the win. Now the Flames are hoping to beat Elon next weekend so they can make it into the playoffs. With the performance put up by the Flames this year, we are all hoping that they will make it to playoff territory and can prove to all that the Big South does have champions!

LYNCHBURG, Va. – Following their second-straight shutout of a Big South opponent, the Flames moved to No. 17 in both the Sports Network and FCS Coaches Polls, which were released earlier today.
The 42-0 Homecoming victory over Charleston Southern helped the 7-1 Flames move up three spots in the Sports Network poll. William & Mary, who was not even in the Top 25 two weeks ago, narrowly edged out the Flames for No. 16 following the Tribe’s 34-24 victory over Rhode Island. Liberty, Lafayette, South Carolina State and William & Mary had the largest leaps on the week in the FCS Coaches Poll, with each squad moving up four spots from the previous week. The Flames moved up to No. 17, while William & Mary (No. 19), South Carolina (No. 20) and Lafayette (No. 22) all trail Liberty in the weekly ranking. Elon, Liberty’s regular-season finale opponent on Nov. 22, suffered one of the larger drops in voting this week, following its 55-20 setback to No. 3/5 Wofford. The Phoenix now rank No. 10 in the Sports Network poll and No. 12 in the FCS Coaches listing. The No. 17 ranking in both national FCS listings marks the eight-straight week the Flames have appeared in the national Top 25 ranking, extending the program’s record for consecutive weeks in the rankings. The Flames will put their newest national ranking on the line this weekend when Liberty travels to Clinton, S.C., to face off against Presbyterian. The gridiron battle between Liberty and its future Big South foe is slated for 1:30 p.m., at Bailey Memorial Stadium. |

The LU Flames continued their dominance in this division by taking control of the game in the first few possessions on Saturday at Williams Stadium. Everything seemed to be going right for LU as they stormed to a 14-0 lead within minutes of the opening kickoff. Penalties against Charleston Crawford were taken advantage of by the Flames and the dominance continued throughout the game. Jonathan Crawford and Dominic Bolden touchdowns in the first quarter were followed by another remarkable 2nd quarter from Rashad Jennings and Jonathan Crawford. At halftime, the Flames led 35-0 and the domination continued. QB Brock Smith ran the ball into the endzone in the 4th quarter giving the Flames their final score of 42-0. LU outperformed the opponents in offense and defensive plays. The determination of the Flames and their outstanding game winning skills continue to prove the character and winning attitude of this year's LU Flames team. The Flames will be away next weekend playing against Presbyterian. Let's all wish them luck as they continue their excellence!
