2024 College Football Shocks: Which Top Teams Might Crash and Burn?
The model’s skepticism appears to come from a few fronts. For one thing, as easy as Liberty’s schedule is, the Flames have more potentially losable games than they did in a cakewalk of a 2023 slate. A road trip to fellow College Football Playoff hopeful Appalachian State in Week 5 looms large. They also don’t avoid either of the other two CUSA teams (Western Kentucky and Jacksonville State) that look like potential contenders.
Mainly, though, TRACR’s skepticism revolves around the defense, which it ranks 84th, just behind those two other CUSA schools. Our computers don’t think Salter and small but mighty tailback Quinton Cooley are assured to cover up deficiencies on the other side of the ball.
