Game Day!!

Should be a cool but beautiful night at the Doyt. Go Falcons.

Three notes:

First, according to The Blade, WKU will use both QBs, but start r-FR K. J. Black. He is the running QB, and the article notes that we need to defend him better than we did the mobile QBs at Temple and Minnesota.

Second, according to their local paper, WKU is without two of its D-backs, including its long-time safety who has played 38 straight games. This should help us. We don't have a lot of ideas how WKU will respond in this environment--their schedule gives few clues.

But Western will be shorthanded. Safety Marion Rumph's 38-game starting streak is expected to end because of a foot injury, and cornerback Rashad Etheridge is doubtful due to an ankle injury.

Third, Mel Kiper has Kory Lichtensteiger ranked as the #2 C coming into the draft. (via azz.com)
