SAN ANTONIO – Western Kentucky's mistakes in Friday's Conference USA championship game didn't just play a part in the Hilltoppers' 49-41 loss to UTSA in the Alamodome.

"I felt like in the first half, everything that we called was working. We just stopped ourselves. It wasn't really anything they did.
