T.M. Selection: Liberty.

I like Liberty to cover the spread against Syracuse on Friday. Liberty has started their season undefeated after 3 games and they have looked really good with their offense. Malik Willis has done nothing but impressed since he started the season. He is not only playing well and passing accurately but he is also finding ways to get himself out of high pressure situations and he has been making some wonky Patrick Mahomes style throws in their games that just make you wonder how even got the pass off and to the receiver. He is a special kind of talent that is leading his team to victories by large margins, not just squeaking by. Syracuse is 2-1 this year but their 2 wins came against Albany and Ohio. As soon as they faced a tougher opponent in Rutgers they lost and were not able to do much with the ball in a 17-7 game. Liberty is just the better team here and they have a quarterback that will do what he needs to do to make the smart plays and the big plays to win this game. I like Liberty to cover the spread here.

T.M. Prediction: 31-20 Liberty.
