The Liberty Flames caught everyone by surprise with a loss last Saturday night at ULM, including the entire ASOR staff. All nine of us incorrectly picked the Flames to take care of business against the Warhawks. This week, the Flames hit the road once again to take on North Texas with kickoff scheduled for 4 p.m. EST and carried on ESPN+. How will the Flames fare? The ASOR staff predicts the outcome below.
