EKU head coach Walt Wells knows his team will have its hands full when the Colonels visit Lexington this Saturday. The jokes and the flattery can be perceived as a defense mechanism. I prefer to just enjoy an outright entertaining head coach.

Speaking with members of the media via Zoom Tuesday morning, Wells acknowledged the challenges the Colonels are up against when they face Kentucky. Fresh off a 66-13 season-opening loss to Cincinnati, the deck is stacked against the Colonels.

Barion Brown did not stuff the stat sheet with receiving yards (3 catches, 39 yards) but he did return a kickoff 99 yards for a touchdown, the second of his career.
