Outlook
The Western Kentucky Hilltoppers are coming off a loss to FCS foe Maine which was one of the more depressing results for the program in recent history. Starting quarterback Drew Eckels, who has looked solid at times (when he’s had time to throw) under center is questionable with an upper body injury after taking a beating against Maine.
