WKU is one of the newest members of the FBS, entering just their seventh year of membership in college football s highest classification. In sixth-year QB Brandon Doughty, the Hilltoppers returned the nation s leader in passing yards (4,830) and touchdowns (49) from 2014. Doughty, the 2014 C-USA Most Valuable Player, was granted a sixth year of eligiblity for injuries suffered across the 2011 and 2012 seasons. More on Doughty on page 16 Last season, WKU became the first program in NCAA history with a 4,500 yard passer and 1,500 yard rusher. They were also the first program in 17 years to break their league s single-game passing (Doughty, 593, at Middle Tennessee) and rushing record (Allen, 345, vs. Army) in the same season (Kent State, MAC, 1997). Through eight games, WKU has tallied 328 points, down just one point from last year s school record pace. In 2014, through eight games, WKU was 329-347 (-18) in scoring margin and 3-5. This season, the Tops are 328-216 (+112) and 6-2. WKU has been on fire lately, with halftime leads of 42, 25, 38 and 20 points in four of their last five games. The Hilltoppers are out-scoring their opponents 232-96 in the first half, an average halftime margin of 17 points, the third-highest nationally. More on Page 11. WKU has reached bowl eligibility for the fifth consecutive season and in five of seven years as an FBS school. The Hilltoppers are also the first bowl eligible team in the Commonwealth. The 6-2 start is WKU s best of the FBS era. NOTING THE GAME The Hilltoppers jump back into conference play this week and carry a seven-game winning streak over C-USA opponents into the game, the fourth-longest active streak in the country. WKU has never played at Old Dominion and has played in Virginia just twice. The Hilltoppers are 0-2 including a loss at No. 20 Virginia Tech in 2008. The other game was at Liberty in 1995. It will also be just the 12th time WKU has played on Halloween in program history and for just the third time since 1987. WKU last played on Halloween in 2009, losing 49-68 at North Texas. The Hilltoppers are 8-4 all-time on the date and 3-4 when on the road. ODU Athletic Director Dr. Camden Wood Selig formerly served in the same post at WKU. Selig hired current WKU AD Todd Stewart. NUMBERS TO WATCH 1 72 Wide receiver Taywan Taylor is one receiving touchdown shy of breaking WKU s single-season mark of 11. Taylor has tied Jared Dangerfield (2014) and Porter Williams (1973). Taywan Taylor also needs just 72 yards to become only the second 1,000-yard receiver in a season in program history. He would join Porter Williams (1973) in that club.

Head Coach JEFF BROHM 6-2/Second Year 14-7 Overall/Second Year Jeff Brohm, a native Kentuckian and one of the state s most notable football products, enters his second season as the head football coach at WKU. A 12-year collegiate coaching veteran with experience in the Big 10, Big East, Conference USA and Sun Belt conferences, Brohm came to The Hill as the offensive coordinator in 2013 where he directed a highflying, high-scoring offensive attack that shattered 18 single-season school records including total offense, individual passing yards and individual rushing yards. He obliterated those marks once he was given the controls to direct his version of the offense. In 2014, the Hilltoppers completed their transformation from a ground-and-pound, run-first program to one of the nation s premiere passing offenses with their ability to move the ball seemingly at will against opponents. In Brohm s first saeson, WKU broke 50 school and conference records including the school s singleseason and single-game records in total yards (season/ game), touchdown passes (season/game), points scored in a season, and a host of others. The head coach s biggest credit, however, may lie in the right arm of senior quarterback Brandon Doughty, the nation s top passer in 2014. In his first season as a starter, Doughty threw 14 touchdowns to 14 interceptions but improved dramatically with Brohm directing the offense. Doughty s 49 touchdown passes and 4,830 yards were national-best numbers as he earned Conference USA Most Valuable Player honors and the Sammy Baugh Award, given to the nation s top quarterback. Doughty was even more deadly at home where he finished the year without throwing a single interception to 24 touchdowns - the only QB in the country with more than 60 attempts who can make that claim. To put it into perspective, if Doughty had never played a single road game on the year, he would have still broken WKU s single season touchdown passes record, a record that had stood since 1985 with 22). Under Brohm, the Hilltoppers won their first bowl at the FBS level, a 49-48 thriller against Central Michigan in the inaugural Popeyes Bahamas Bowl. WKU also recorded consecutive eight-win seasons for the first time since 2003-04. Brohm s OFFENSES Starting Quarterbacks Brohm s quarterbacks have averaged 3,247 passing yards per season, a mark that would have ranked No. 28 nationally in 2014. Known for his development of signal callers, Brohm spent two years at Illinois before making the move to UAB for the 2012 season. Prior to going to Illinois, Brohm spent the 2009 season as the quarterbacks coach at FAU, where he was reunited with his college coach, Howard Schnellenberger. Brohm served as the quarterbacks coach at Louisville from 2003-06, assistant head coach and passing game coordinator in 2007, and the assistant head coach and offensive coordinator in 2008. Under Brohm s direction, the Cardinals passing attack flourished, including a record-breaking season in 2007 with Brohm s younger brother, Brian, as quarterback. In his first season as an assistant coach at Louisville, Brohm guided quarterback Stefan LeFors to a No. 1 national ranking in passing efficiency and completion percentage, and watched as the southpaw narrowly missed setting NCAA records in both categories. Brohm began his NFL career in 1994 with the San Diego Chargers, who played in Super Bowl XXIX. He played for the San Francisco 49ers from 1995-97, where he was the backup quarterback to Hall of Famer and ESPN analyst Steve Young in 1997. From 1998-2000, Brohm played for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Denver Broncos and the Cleveland Browns. In 2001, he played in the XFL for the Orlando Rage and was named first team All-XFL as he owned the league s highest QB rating at 99.9. Brohm was one of four family members to earn a gridiron letter from Louisville. He wrapped up his four-year collegiate career as one of the most prolific offensive players to wear Louisville s jersey. As a threeyear starter for the Cards, Brohm ranks among the all-time leaders for passing yards, touchdown passes, completions, total offense and completion percentage. As a student-athlete at Louisville, Brohm played two seasons of baseball with the Cleveland Indians organization while playing football for the Cards. Brohm also was named the Kentucky High School Player of the Decade for the 1980s before attending Louisville, where his number was honored in 2006 for his contributions as a Cardinal quarterback. Brohm received his bachelor s degree in business administration from Louisville in 1994. He and his wife, Jennifer, have a son, Brady, and daughter, Brooke. Total Offense Cmp. Att. Pct. Yds. TD. INT.

WKU is out-scoring its opponents 232-96 in the game s opening half this season and boast the most second quarter points in the country. Over eight games, that 136 point margin works out to a 17 point average lead going into the break of each game. The Hilltoppers trail only No. 3 Clemson and No. 2 Baylor in that area.

Notebook - TEAM TOUGH OUT OF CONFERENCE After going 0-12 against non-conference foes in their first three years as an FBS team (2009-11), WKU has turned it around and has been on a hot streak against teams from outside their conference. Since 2012, the Hilltoppers are 13-6 against non-conference opponents with their only losses coming at Indiana and No. 5 LSU (2015), at Illinois (2014), at Tennessee (2013), at No. 1 Alabama (2012) and vs. Central Michigan in the 2012 Little Caesar s Pizza Bowl. WKU is 10-1 over that same span against teams from outside the Power 5 conferences.

Of the 27 teams to transition to the FBS since 1987, only eight have reached their second bowl game within that six year window. WKU joins Marshall, Boise State, Idaho, Nevada, South Florida, Troy, and FAU in that very exclusive group. EXPERIENCED TEAM + EXPERIENCED COACHING STAFF Contrary to the youth of the 2014 team, the 2015 Hilltoppers return nearly 73-percent of their letterwinners, 87-percent of their total yards, and 73-percent of their total tackles, marks that have the Tops as the No. 16 most experienced team in the country heading into 2015, according to Phil Steele. To go along with an experienced team in 2015, head coach Jeff Brohm s staff is also the most experienced coaching staff in Conference USA, combining for 206 years of collegiate coaching experience. North Texas is next on the list with 183 years. CONFERENCE USA COACHING STAFF EXPERIENCE Team Head Coach Years of Exp. 1. WKU Jeff Brohm 206 2. North Texas Dan McCarney 183 3.

WKU has also held a lead in 35-of-37 games and in all but four games over the last three seasons. (42-of-46) Under Jeff Brohm, the Hilltoppers are 8-1 at home and have won seven straight, the longest streak since winning 10 between 2003-05. WKU is the first FBS team to have a 2,000-yard all-purpose player in four consecutive seasons when Leon Allen tallied 2,018 yards last season. Of the eight wins in 2014, six of them came over bowl-eligible opponents, a program record. Prior to that, WKU s high-water mark was four in 2013. In their first four seasons as a member of the FBS, the Hilltoppers beat just a combined three bowl-eligible teams. WKU s three games with at least 700 yards of offense or more trail only Baylor (5) and TCU (4) for the most games with 750 yards of offense or more since 2014. Safety Drell Greene became the first true freshman to see game action this season as he played in a reserve role in the Miami game. With their win at Vanderbilt, WKU became the first C-USA team to defeat an SEC opponent since UCF s win over Georgia in the 2010 Liberty Bowl. WKU is 3-1 against the SEC since 2012. WKU has closed consecutive regular seasons with four-game winning streaks and only defending national champion Florida State and Big 10 division champions Ohio State and Wisconsin have won more games in November over the past two seasons than WKU s eight. In the first game on Feix Field following the passing of legendary player and head coach Jimmy Feix, WKU scored 66 points in a victory over Old Dominion. Feix s No. 66 remains one of four retired jerseys for WKU. Of the eight rookie head coaches to be hired in 2014, Jeff Brohm was the only one to lead his team to a bowl victory. Wonderful Terry was the only defensive back with multiple interceptions last season to return them all for touchdowns. Terry was the first WKU player with three defensive scores in a season since Bobby Sippio had three touchdowns in 2000. 12 GAME 9 at ODU 11 a.m. FSN October 31, 2015 @WKUFootball

Northern Illinois has a runner go for 1,500 from 2002 to 2006. Oregon (2009-12) and USC (1978-81) each had four consecutive seasons with a 1,500 yard rusher.

Bobby Rainey rushed for 100-yards or more in nine of 12 games in 2010 and 10 of 12 in 2011. Antonio Andrews picked up in 2012 with 10 of 13 games and 11 of 12 in 2013. Leon Allen contributed six 100-yard performances in 2014 while Ace Wales tallied over 100 yards on the ground against UAB. Freshman D Andre Ferby tallied his first 100-yard performance, and the first of 2015, against Miami (Ohio). Ace Wales returned to form with consecutive 100-yarders against Middle Tennessee and North Texas. DON T DOUBT DOUGHTY In his first season as the starter, WKU quarterback Brandon Doughty lit up the Hilltopper record books and was the only quarterback in the country to lead multiple game-winning drives of 80 yards or longer during the 2013 season. Both of those game-winning drives came in two of the last three weeks of the season against Army and Arkansas State. Trailing Army 17-14 with 4:16 left in West Point, Doughty completed 5-of-6 passes for 73 yards in leading WKU down the field for the go-ahead touchdown with 32 seconds remaining. The Hilltoppers trailed Arkansas State 31-27 with 5:30 remaining in their season finale, but Doughty again delivered in the clutch, marching WKU 99 yards in 16 plays before throwing the game-winning touchdown pass to Willie McNeal with 10 seconds remaining. SPREADING IT AROUND The WKU passing attack spreads the wealth and has had at least seven different players catch a ball in 19 of 21 games since 2014, with a season-high 11 players catching at least one pass in the Popeyes Bahamas Bowl. In 2015, the Hilltoppers had nine players catch at least one pass against LA Tech, Miami, Rice and North Texas. Eight players caught a pass against Middle Tennessee and at LSU. TAKE YOUR PICK WKU found the strength in their passing game relied on their depth at the receiver position, forcing opposing defenses to defend each pass catcher - receivers and tight ends - with equal concern.. Against both LA Tech and Indiana, tight end Tyler Higbee led WKU in receptions but wide receiver Taywan Taylor was the yardage leader. The pattern repeated itself against Miami as Jared Dangerfield tallied a teamhigh 11 catches but Taylor led in yardage. The Hilltoppers are one of only eight teams in the nation with five receivers with 20 or more receptions: Taywan Taylor (55), Jared Dangerfield (50), Nicholas Norris (32), Tyler Higbee (31) and Antwane Grant (28). DOWNFIELD BLOCKING While WKU s offensive attack begins and ends with triggerman Brandon Doughty, over a third of WKU s passing yardage total come AFTER the catch, a credit to the importance of downfield blocking.

Notebook - PLAYERS TAKE IT TO THE HOUSE WKU s Red Zone defense ranked No. 17 nationally last season and they had a knack for the big play with their backs to their own end zone. The Hilltoppers were the only team in the country with four defensive touchdowns of 80 yards or more. In fact, the four plays were WKU s longest plays of the year. Wonderful Terry was also one of three players in the country with three or more defensive touchdowns (Richard Leonard, FIU/Shaq Thompson, Washington). In all, WKU had five defensive touchdowns on the year, the most since registering five in 2007, and the third-most nationally in 2014. Player/Game Juwan Gardner vs. ODU Wonderful Terry vs. Illinois Wonderful Terry vs. UTEP Ricardo Singh vs. UAB Wonderful Terry vs. Navy Play 96 yd INT Return 95 yd Fumble Return 90 yd INT Return 85 yd INT Return 43 yd INT Return NOTE EXPANDED Wonderful Terry converted all three defensive turnovers he got his hands on into touchdowns. ALL-PURPOSE UNIVERSITY WKU could be APU, for All-Purpose University, as the Hilltoppers have had an individual go for 100 or more APY in 62 of its last 64 games, dating back to Oct. 9, 2010 against FIU. WKU was held without a player getting 100 APY for the first time since that game at FAU on Oct. 18, 2014. WKU is one of just five programs with five or more 2,000 yard all-purpose players in their school s history. Six: Utah State Five: Toledo, Tulsa, Northern Illinois, WKU NEED TO KNOW RULE CHANGES 1. Crew of Eight Officials: The eighth official, the center judge (with the letter C on the uniform), is positioned in the offensive backfield opposite the referee. 2. Non-Standard Overbuilt Facemasks Are Illegal: This is a facemask characterized by greater weight and closer spacing between the bars. Use of the facemask is a safety issue as opponents can easily get their fingers caught in the tight space. 3. Illegal Equipment: Player is Out for One Play: Up until now, if the officials noticed that a player was wearing illegal equipment, the team was charged one of its three timeouts. The new rule is that the player must leave the game for at least one play and may not return until the equipment is made legal. His team may burn a timeout to keep him from missing a down, but the equipment must be corrected before he is allowed to play. 4. Pregame Warm-Ups: Teams Guaranteed Access to the Field: By the new rule, the teams are now guaranteed that they may remain on the field for pregame warm-ups until at least 22 minutes before the opening kickoff. The committee was concerned that teams were being forced to leave the field early because of other pregame activities, and thus were having to spend too much time in the locker room before the kickoff. 5. Resetting the Play Clock When the Ball is Not Ready for Play: When the play clock begins its count from 40 seconds, on rare occasions the officials will have difficulty getting a new ball from the sidelines. In such a case after some period of time, the referee will stop the game clock and signal for the play clock to be reset to 25 seconds. 6. Helmet off Defensive Player: Play Clock Set to 40 Seconds: When a player s helmet comes off, the game clock is stopped, and the player must leave the game for one play. Now the play clock is set to 40 seconds when a defensive player loses his helmet, and still to 25 seconds when it is a player on offense. 7. Pushing or Pulling an Opponent off the Pile: Unsportsmanlike Conduct: Starting in 2015, if a player forcibly pulls or pushes an opponent off the pile, he is to be charged with unsportsmanlike conduct. Here s why this is important: if a player is flagged for unsportsmanlike conduct twice in the game, he is automatically disqualified after the second offense. 8. Sideline Warning Returns: For a long time, the first infraction led to a sideline warning, with no yardage penalty. After a few years the rule was changed to assess a five-yard penalty for the first offense. Now, we are returning to the warning for the first infraction. No yardage penalty will result until the second offense. 9. Instant Replay: Blocking During an On-Side Kick May Be Reviewed: A rule that is not so well known is that the kicking team may not block until they are eligible to touch the ball. Starting in 2015, replay may also review whether the kicking team blocks before being eligible to touch the ball; if they do, it is a foul.

Below are some of those names and a brief backstory. Ge Monee Brown Inspired by the 1991 Mario Van Peebles movie, New Jack City - Roommate of Wonderful Terry. Nick Holt V/VI Defensive coordinator Nick Holt and his son, senior middle linebacker Nick Holt, are the fifth and sixth generations of Nick Holt in their family. The elder Holt s grandfather was also one of the first actors to play the character Tarzan as well as Flash Gordon, 1932 Olympic gold medalist Buster Crabbe.

TALK ABOUT CLOSING STRONG If you re only as good as your last performance, Brandon Doughty left the nation quite a impression. Over his final two games in 2014, Doughty was 65-of-92 (70.6-percent) for 977 yards with 13 touchdowns and two interceptions. During WKU s seven-game winning streak, Doughty was 177-of-254 (69.7-percent) for 2,475 yards, 26 touchdowns and just two interceptions. Over his last 12 games, he is 364-of-513 (70.9-percent) for 4,859 yards, 53 touchdowns and seven interceptions. TD TOSS STREAK Brandon Doughty has thrown at least one touchdown pass in 22 consecutive games, tied for the longest streak in the nation. Player, Class School Streak Next Opponent Trevone Boykin, Sr. TCU 22 West Virginia, Oct. 29 Brandon Doughty, Sr. WKU 22 at ODU, Oct. 31 NOTE EXPANDED Doughty has thrown a touchdown in 29 of his 37 career appearances. 350 IN A HALF Against Indiana, Brandon Doughty had 352 yards passing - at halftime. He repeated that performance the following week, going for 375 against Miami at the break. It was the third and fourth time in his career he had thrown for at least 350 yards by halftime, and according to ESPN Stats and Info, that s more than any other FBS quarterback in the last 10 years. Doughty also had 350 yards or more against Bowling Green (359) and Central Michigan (350). He also had at least 285 yards at halftime at Middle Tennessee (307) and at Marshall (285) in 2014 and 343 at Rice, 333 vs. Middle Tennessee in 2015 and 288 at North Texas. 569 AND ABOVE Only 10 times has an FBS quarterback thrown for more than 569 yards in a game since the 2004 season and of those 10 - two belong to Doughty. Doughty also added two of the top four single-game C-USA performances, just three games into the league last season. Player Team Yds.

Updated for 2015, he had not thrown an INT at home since Oct. 15, 2013, a span of 394 passing attempts, until a first quarter interception against Middle Tennessee, nearly two calendar years. He was the only FBS quarterback in 2014 without an INT at home. For perspective, 83 FBS teams had fewer than 24 TD passes all season while 18 teams did not amass Doughty s home passing yardage total all season. Doughty s 24 touchdown passes at home were two more than any WKU quarterback had ever thrown IN AN ENTIRE SEASON entering 2014 while his 159 completions and 2,107 yards at home would rank fifth and sixth respectively in WKU single-season history. HIS PLACE IN HISTORY Brandon Doughty became just the 91st quarterback in FBS history to eclipse 10,000 career yards in the second quarter against Middle Tennessee. Doughty is the fourth signal caller from a Kentucky FBS school to make it to 10,000, joining Jared Lorenzen (Kentucky; 10,354; 76th), Brian Brohm (Louisville; 10,775; 64th) and Chris Redman (Louisville; 12,541; 20th). According to Sports-Reference.com, Doughty s current 169.55 passer rating is a league-best while his 69.28-percent completion percentage is second all-time over WKU s two seasons in Conference USA. Houston s Case Keenum finished with 69.36 and 160.6 marks, respectively. Doughty s 7,864 passing yards as a C-USA passer are 19th-most all-time.

(AP) -- Joe Brown stopped Nathan Marcus a yard shy of the goal line on a twopoint conversion attempt with 33 seconds left to preserve Western Kentucky s 14-12 victory over Vanderbilt on Thursday night. Brown made an open-field tackle after Marcus caught Johnny McCrary s pass on the conversion attempt. Vanderbilt had cut the lead to 14-12 when McCrary threw a 2-yard touchdown pass to Trent Sherfield on fourth-and-goal. Leon Allen had a 4-yard touchdown run and Tyler Higbee caught a 9-yard touchdown pass for Western Kentucky. Higbee set up Allen s score with a 65-yard reception. Tommy Openshaw kicked field goals of 49 and 26-yards for Vanderbilt. Vanderbilt had three scoreless trips inside Western Kentucky s 10-yard line. McCrary had two passes intercepted in the end zone, and Openshaw missed a 28-yard field goal after a low snap. Higbee finally awoke WKU s offense late in the third quarter when he caught a Brandon Doughty pass, headed to the right sideline and broke free before finally getting brought down at the Vanderbilt 4 to set up the Hilltoppers first touchdown.

The victory was the first for WKU in a true road game in the season opener since winning at UT-Martin in the opener of the 1999 season. This is the sixth straight win for the Hilltoppers, which marks the longest winning streak since winning 13 between 2002 and 2003. WKU was held scoreless in a half for the first time since playing Army on Nov. 9, 2013. The 10 punts in the game were the most by the Hilltoppers since 10 in the Florida Atlantic game in 2010 (Nov. 6). WKU s 247 yards of total offense were the fewest in a win in the FBS era. Brandon Doughty moved into second in career passing yards as his total of 209 for the game pushed his career mark to 8,009. Senior linebackers Nick Holt and Nick Newton each intercepted their first career pass in the endzone, halting a pair of Vanderbilt scoring drives.

(AP) -- Brandon Doughty threw for 441 yards, redshirt freshman D Andre Ferby relieved an injured Leon Allen to add a short touchdown among several key runs to help Western Kentucky survive Louisiana Tech 41-38 for an important - yet costly - Conference USA victory Thursday night. After a brief lull, the Hilltoppers (2-0, 1-0) regrouped behind Doughty and Ferby, who rushed four times for 13 yards on a drive ending with a 1-yard TD run and two-point conversion catch for a 38-24 lead with 54 seconds left in the third quarter. The Bulldogs scored twice (1-1, 0-1) late in the fourth but ran out of time. Doughty bounced back from a 209-yard effort at Vanderbilt to complete 28 of 38 passes with a 37- yard touchdown and win the statistical battle with Bulldogs counterpart and Florida transfer Jeff Driskel, who was 28 of 48 for 357 yards and two TDs. Ferby also rushed 14 times for 39 yards to provide the emotional lift the Hilltoppers needed in this early matchup of C-USA divisional favorites.

This marks the first time since the 2000 season that WKU won both its home and away openers in a season. After only 297 yards of total offense in last season s match up, WKU exploded for 590 yards in the game. The 441 passing yards by Brandon Doughty are now the most thrown by a quarterback in the FBS this season. Kylen Towner returned a kickoff in the second quarter for a careerlong 98-yard touchdown. The return was the sixth-longest in school history and longest since 2001. Tyler Higbee leads all FBS tight ends this season in receiving yards with 190 yards in two games, after adding 88 tonight. Doughty is now 67-78 (85.9%) for 800 yards and 9 TDs on opening drives. Tonight, Doughty was 4-4 for 67 yards and TD on the first drive.

(AP) -- The Hilltoppers (6-2) were as close to the Tigers as 17-13 on Brandon Doughty s 39-yard touchdown pass to Antwane Grant in the third quarter, but LSU scored the next 17 points. Doughty, who came in averaging 387 yards passing, finished 37 of 61 for 325 yards and three TDs. He was intercepted once, by Jamal Adams - the LSU safety s third interception this season. Taywan Taylor had 10 catches for 103 yards and one TD for Western Kentucky. LSU finished with 211 yards rushing, well below its average of 325.5 yards coming in. Derrius Guice wound up with the Tigers longest run - a late 47-yard touchdown dash. After opening with four Fournette rushes for 15 yards on its first series, LSU took a 7-0 lead on Harris deep throw to Dupre. Yet LSU stuck with running plays for most of the first half with less success than usual, gaining just 82 yards on 23 carries. Western Kentucky, which came in averaging 535.4 yards and 44 points, could not move the ball at its usual pace against LSU s defense, but managed to tie the game on its fifth possession. D Andre Ferby broke loose for a 35-yard run, setting up Anthony Wales 7-yard touchdown on a shovel pass.

He has thrown for at least 300 yards in 17 of his last 21 games. Before his miss in the third quarter, Garrett Schwettman had split the uprights on 88 consecutive PATs, the second-longest streak in WKU history. He is the only kicker to post two streaks of 50+ as he held a run of 59 straight from 10/11/12-11/2/13. Taywan Taylor now has 124 career receptions, tying with Alan Mullins (1982-85) for sixth-place in WKU history. His 11 touchdowns this season tie Jared Dangerfield (2014) and Porter Williams (1973) for most in a season in program history. Taylor s 928 yards this season are the third-most in a single season in Hilltopper history as he had his third straight 100-yard game and his fifth in the last six games. The 101,561 in attendance is the second-most to ever watch the Hilltoppers play, just 260 people shy of the most ever (2012 at No. 1 Alabama). The 428 total yards on offense by WKU were the most given up by LSU at home this season and most since the Mississippi State game (Sept. 20) last season. Team Qtr Time Scoring Play Pl.
