Five things to watch for in the Red White Game

WKU's annual spring football game will kickoff at 3 p.m. Saturday at Houchens-Smith Stadium. Admission and parking are both free while there will be a postgame autograph session with the Hilltopper coaching staff and players. Here are the top storylines to keep an eye on in the game.

Sanford's style of play

Not only will the Hilltoppers get to play in front of what should be a nice crowd for the first time in 2017, but it will also be Mike Sanford's inaugural game as WKU's head coach, technically speaking.

Fans and media have been able to catch of a glimpse of how Sanford coaches throughout the course of spring practice leading up to Saturday, but it'll be interesting to see how he directs his Topper club in a game setting.
