We are now three full weeks into the 2022 college football season. This has given us a chance to see what the early returns on all the teams around the country are. Liberty has opened the season at 2-1 and is getting a lot of national attention for it’s strong performance at No. 18 Wake Forest on Saturday night in Winston-Salem, North Carolina.
As we enter week 4 of the season, it’s a good time to take a look at some of the national rankings of FBS teams for Liberty, the Flames’ 2022 opponents, Virginia teams, and future Conference USA members.
