After their Sun Belt opening victory last weekend, the Old Dominion football team was back at home with a matchup against a familiar Commonwealth foe: Liberty University. The Monarchs came into the weekend with a 2-2 (1-0 Sun Belt) record as the Flames arrived in Norfolk with a 3-1 record.
As an independent school, the Liberty squad’s only loss came against 19th-ranked Wake Forrest when the Flames failed the two-point conversion to defeat the Demon Deacons. It was ODU’s third Commonwealth clash so far this season.
