Hilltoppers looking for first win against FIU

While the season opener wasn’t quite what the Hilltoppers were hoping for, the WKU football team will look to get in the win column in its first Conference USA matchup this weekend.

WKU (0-1) will travel to Riccardo Silva Stadium in Miami to square off with Florida International (0-1) on Saturday night.

Head coach Tyson Helton will be seeking his first career victory at the helm of the Hilltopper program, while WKU will be seeking its first gridiron victory on the young season.

FIU struggled in its opening matchup, losing in blowout fashion at Tulane (1-0) on Aug.
