Hilltoppers look ahead after defensive collapse at La. Tech

Just five days after a blowout win over FCS Houston Baptist, the WKU football team saw its 13-game Conference USA winning streak snapped on Thursday, Oct. 7, at the hands of Louisiana Tech by a final score of 55-52 in Ruston, Louisiana.

“It was a tough loss for us, but a lot of things can be learned from it,” Head Coach Jeff Brohm said. “A lot of corrections need to be made and we have to make sure that we use these defeats to allow our anger to motivate us to never lose again. I think our guys at this point understand that and we’ve got a lot of work to do this week.
