– Editor’s note: This is part one of a 13-part series previewing each of Western Kentucky’s opponents for the 2021 football season. Part one features an overview of the Hilltoppers’ schedule. Part two will preview UT Martin.
From the opening kickoff at Houchens-Smith Stadium to the regular-season finale at Marshall, each matchup in Western Kentucky’s 2021 football schedule features its own set of challenges.
But the Hilltoppers are ready to embrace those challenges after an unpredictable 2020 season.
“Really like our schedule,” WKU head coach Tyson Helton said July 21 during the virtual Conference USA media days.
