Liberty routed Sam Houston 35-3 in Lynchburg, extending its winning streak to five and improving to 5-1 overall and 2-0 in Conference USA. The Flames controlled the game on the ground, rushing for 297 yards, while their defense held Sam Houston to 243 total yards and forced the Bearkats to go three-and-out on fourth-down attempts. Deshawn Purdie threw a touchdown pass and added 57 rushing yards, while Ethan Vasko scored twice on the ground; Liberty’s 15 penalties for 117 yards remained a concern. The win put Liberty one victory from bowl eligibility, with a bye week before its next game at Kennesaw State.
