Indiana football opponent preview: Western Kentucky

One of the first signs that last year’s Indiana football season was potentially going to get hairy was the week four matchup with Western Kentucky in Bowling Green, when the Hoosiers eked out a 33-31 win.

D.J. Matthews went down early after an awkward step during a punt return with what ended up being a season-ending ACL tear while the Hilltoppers’ high-powered offense prevented the Hoosiers from ever really getting a comfortable lead.

Luckily for Indiana, Zach Kittley’s offense made him a hot commodity on the coaching market and he was hired away from Western Kentucky this offseason by Texas Tech, where he’s now the offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach.
