Talan Lamattina Goes Supernova in Liberty Win
Winning always takes teamwork, but on Friday Talan Lamattina stepped things up a notch to give Liberty the 'W'. Parlier had no answer to Lamattina as he rushed for 99 yards and a touchdown. The bulk of those rushing yards came from one huge play: a run that gained an incredible 81 yards.
On the season, Lamattina has run in 7 touchdowns while averaging 70.6 rushing yards per game. He is looking even better than he did last year: after eight games last season, he was only averaging 41 rushing yards per game.
