Western Kentucky has become accustomed to playing -- and winning -- in December.
The Hilltoppers are headed to a bowl for their fourth straight season. They've won their last three bowl games.
Georgia State doesn't quite have the same postseason pedigree as WKU, but is excited to make a run at the young program's first-ever bowl victory, when the Panthers from the Sun Belt Conference take on the Hilltoppers from Conference USA on Saturday in the AutoNation Cure Bowl in Orlando, Fla.
A win for the Panthers also would set a school record for wins with seven.
