On Tuesday night, I joined the Fast Lane with Ed Lane to help preview Liberty’s homecoming game against FIU and also looks head to the start of the men’s basketball season..
Our conversation centered around:

- The threat that FIU will pose for the Liberty Flames this Saturday.
- Comparing the mid-season confidence of the 2026 Flames with the 2025 Flames.
- How complimentary football has led to the Liberty Flames imposing their will on their opponents.
- With different rushing leaders each game, how much credit does the offensive line deserve?
- Do we see t he Liberty Flames physicality demoralize opponents?
- Which factors most translate to the dominate of the Flames’ front seven: fresh because offense controls time of possession or better depth?
- Will the trenches be the key to Liberty staving off FIU?

- The game plan to stay awake for the Flames’ MBB season opener on Monday night.
