Taking WESTERN KENTUCKY
here. Listen. I normally try and not put out games just because they are 'bowls'
or on tv, especially when we are off to a 5-2 start to our Bowl Selections. But
I will take a flyer here. Western Kentucky is a much more solid team than
Central Michigan. Both offenses nothing special (WKY 72, CMU 67) but the edge is
on the defensive side of the ball where WKY (23) is far superior to CMU (94). I
think the Hilltoppers have played a tougher schedule and even though they have
an in-term coach (Lance Guidry) I don't think that will rock the boat. Guidry
was the DC so he knows the players. This will be his last game as Bobby Petrino
is the coach in waiting here. I am sure the players will want to send him off
with a resounding victory to put on his resume. Again. Just the better team here
in WKY. If this game wasn't in Detroit, I am sure the line would be closer to
8-10 points. 4* WESTERN KENTUCKY
