Liberty’s chances of making the College Football Playoff are all but gone.
The previously undefeated Flames were upset 27-24 at Kennesaw State on Wednesday night. Kennesaw State entered the game at 0-6 in its first season of football at the FBS level and the win is the Owls’ first in 11 games against opponents from the top tier of college football.
Oh, and Liberty was a 26.5-point favorite before kickoff. To put that into perspective, Northern Illinois’ stunning Week 2 upset over Notre Dame came as the Huskies were 28.5-point underdogs.
Liberty never led again after Kennesaw State tied the game at 7-7 in the first quarter.
