WKU’s loss to No. 4 Wisconsin on Friday featured a historically bad offensive night for the Hilltoppers.
WKU was trounced 34-3 by the Badgers. WKU’s offense had four red zone opportunities in the game and only came away with three points on those trips. It was the lowest-scoring game for WKU under head coach Mike Sanford. It was also the lowest-scoring game for the program since Sept. 8, 2012, when the Hilltoppers were blanked by Alabama 35-0. WKU was forced to punt on its first six drives of the game, four of which were three-and-out possessions.
“That’s the name of the game,” Sanford said of WKU’s red zone struggles.
