Liberty’s first season in Conference USA, and the Flames’ first year with Jamey Chadwell as their head coach, went about as well as fans could’ve hoped.
Liberty went a perfect 12-0 during the regular season, won the CUSA Championship, and reached the Fiesta Bowl before losing to Oregon. The Flames weren’t as strong the past two seasons, though, going 12-12 overall during that span. But they hope they can get back to winning more often soon.
