On Saturday, Liberty faced Baylor at McLane Stadium in Waco, Texas, marking the final time the Flames would face a FBS opponent as a FCS program.
Liberty made the game of the most memorable ones in school history, stunning the Bears, 48-45, in their home opener for the Flames' fifth win over a FBS team.
Three of the Flames' five wins over FBS programs have come under the leadership of sixth-year head coach Turner Gill. The Flames also defeated Appalachian State in 2014 and Georgia State in 2015. Liberty's first win over a FBS program came against Eastern Michigan in 1989, followed by a win over Ball State in 2010.
Liberty's Stephen Calvert set a single-game passing record for the Flames, throwing for 447 yards to surpass Phil Basso's record of 441 yards against Carson-Newman in 1984. The sophomore also set a new program record with 44 completions and 60 passing attempts.
Today's video package provides clips from the FS2 television broadcast, along with the radio call by LFSN radio play-by-play broadcaster Alan York, the "Voice of the Flames."
