Damon Lowe had a career game against Old Dominion on a night called short for reasons Western Kentucky coach Tyson Helton is appealing.
Lowe was ejected in the third quarter of the Old Dominion game after being given a targeting penalty for his hit on Monarchs receiver Isaiah Spencer.
The linebacker who had eight tackles at the time of the hit with three minutes left in the third quarter was ejected from the game and by rule, will have to sit out during the first half against Army this Saturday.
Helton said he is appealing the call on the basis of Lowe’s hit not matching two of the three indicators to properly fulfill a targeting rule.
