What’s Going To Happen
The Hilltoppers can’t get this season going.
They’ve lost four straight, and the bowl dreams are long gone, so now they can turn it loose … if they can.
The offense is sputtering, and scoring has been an issue, but the O line hasn’t been bad and there’s just enough in place to potentially give Middle Tennessee an issue.
The Blue Raiders struggle to come up meaningful defensive play – they’re last in the nation in third down stops – but the pass rush has been great, and the plays behind the line are there.
Brent Stockstill has been deadly accurate lately – connecting on 75% of his passes over the last three games with five touchdown passes in the last two – and he should have time to work.
With bowl eligibility there for the taking, the Blue Raiders will come up with a methodical performance, pulling away late. WKU just won’t be able to score enough early on – the offense isn’t going to get take advantage of its opportunities.
