WEST POINT, N.Y. – Western Kentucky didn’t out-Army Army this time like it did in a 2019 victory between the two programs, and it didn’t work out in favor of the Hilltoppers.

“They’re a good football team. They do a great job with their offensive scheme and it’s tough to defend. It was hard defensively to stop them,” WKU head coach Tyson Helton said.
“When you try to answer one thing, they give you something else to worry about.
