Lamp's return bolsters WKU offensive line

Left tackle Forrest Lamp returned last week after suffering a leg injury that kept him out for a pair of games. The redshirt senior started Oct. 6 in the Hilltoppers’ 55-52 loss at Louisiana Tech.

Lamp will be back on the field again Saturday when WKU (3-3 overall, 1-1 Conference USA) takes on league rival Middle Tennessee (4-1, 2-0). Kickoff from Floyd Stadium in Murfreesboro, Tenn., is set for 1:30 p.m., on ESPN3.

“Having Forrest in the game and playing for us, he’s a leader of the offense, he’s a vocal leader,” co-offensive coordinator Brian Brohm said Tuesday.
