Western Kentucky has finally made it to the end of a long journey – sort of.
After a spring and summer filled with uncertainty surrounding the college football season because of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Hilltoppers have made it to game week and are entering the home stretch in preparing for Saturday’s season opener at Louisville.
“Finally made it to the finish line. We’ve got game week this week,” WKU coach Tyson Helton said in Monday’s Zoom conference. “Our kids are excited to play, our staff is excited to play. We’ve got a very challenging game, but a fun game to play.
