1st Look at WKU vs. FIU

The FIU defense would be wise not to stuff themselves at Thanksgiving dinner Thursday because the Panthers face the top quarterback and passing game in Conference USA the next day.

Western Kentucky quarterback Mike White, who leads C-USA with 3,471 passing yards and a 66.1 completion percentage, and the Hilltoppers visit FIU Stadium on Friday night.

WKU (6-5, 4-3 Conference USA) became bowl-eligible after defeating Middle Tennessee 41-38 in overtime last Friday. Like FIU (6-4, 4-3 C-USA), the Hilltoppers are seeking a seventh win to try and secure a bowl game.

There is no guarantee a team is invited to a bowl game despite six wins.
