Week 1: Caldwell @ Liberty Union

[Jakefromstatefarm]

Anyone have any info on Liberty Union this year? I haven't heard much on them, except that they're usually a regular in the playoffs the past few years.

LU lost 20+ seniors from last year's team, but they've been a very successful program in the predominantly Southeastern Regions for the last few years and Coach Johnson has a year under his belt. Caldwell is coming off of one of their best years ever with lots of experience. I'm giving the edge to Liberty Union. Tough to go against such a consistently good program at home, even after the losses of so many key players.

Columbus Dispatch Liberty Union preview. Fairly informative.

Such a long drive too.

Caldwell is loaded. Redskins is the pick

Thanks for the info and link fuzzhead. Sounds like LU is building a solid program, but that's a lot to replace. Hoping Caldwell can walk away with a win and get the season started off right.

This is going to be a fun season to watch. Never thought this would be a stomp.
