From the Media Room: Bahamas Bowl

In preparation for the Flames sixth-straight bowl game appearance, Liberty Head Football Coach Jamey Chadwell met with the media on Tuesday to talk about the Bahamas Bowl match-up against Buffalo.

After Chadwell's weekly presser, Flames' offensive lineman Aaron Fenimore and safety Brylan Green addressed the media from the Media Room inside the Liberty Football Center.

The Flames are 3-2 all-time in bowl games but are seeking their first bowl victory since a 56-20 triumph over Eastern Michigan in the 2021 LendingTree Bowl.

Liberty is 3-0 when facing Buffalo, including a 55-27 victory at UB Stadium last season (Sept. 16, 2023).
The Flames own a 7-10 all-time record against MAC opponents, including 5-1 in Liberty's FBS era and 1-1 in bowl matchups.

Jamey Chadwell is 21-4 in his second year at Liberty and owns a 52-10 coaching record dating back to the start of 2020. He became the Flames' fastest head coach ever to reach 20 victories (23 games). Chadwell is 1-2 all-time in bowl games and 3-0 coaching against Buffalo.

Quarterback Ryan Burger will make his first start at Liberty. He started App State's 2023 opener before sustaining a season-ending injury.

Running back Billy Lucas is expected to headline the Flames' NCAA No. 3-ranked rushing attack. He has posted a pair of 100-yard games on the ground this season, giving him 10 career 100-yard outings and putting him over the 3,000-yard mark for his career, which includes three years at Duquesne and two at Liberty.
