A stagnant WKU offense was unable to capitalize on opportunities from a defense that was up to the challenge in WKU’s 34-3 loss at Wisconsin Friday night.
The Hilltoppers’ red zone offense was largely silent. The Hilltoppers made four trips inside the 20-yard-line and only came away with a field goal. Two of the four red zone trips ended in in turnovers, one a fumble and one an interception.
Head Coach Mike Sanford spoke of the need to convert red zone opportunities after the game.
“That starts with me,” Sanford said. “It starts with me and continuing to make sure that we’re putting our players in the best position to be successful in those red zone opportunities.
