WKU gets back to .500 with win over Ball State

With 4:50 left to play in WKU's Week 3 matchup with Ball State, running back Caleb Huntley muscled his way into the end zone to give the visiting Cardinals a 21-20 lead over WKU. All of a sudden, nostalgia of last week’s fourth quarter meltdown against Louisiana Tech began to set in.

Trailing by one, redshirt senior quarterback Mike White engineered an eight-play, 76-yard drive to give WKU a 26-21 lead. White went 6-6 for 67 yards on the game-winning drive as freshman running back Jakairi Moses punched it in from 5 yards out for the go-ahead score.
