Over the past few years, the Louisiana Tech Bulldogs and Western Kentucky Hilltoppers have been the class of C-USA. That, combined with the fact they’ve played four games in the three years WKU has been in the conference, has caused some to call this a budding rivalry.
They’ve both had a rough start to 2017, with each having to replace some very talented players. After dropping games against P5 teams some thought to be beatable, a lot of people were unsure what to expect out of this game. It wasn’t the shootout we’ve seen from these two in the past, but it was a classic none the less.
