Release: 05/07/2012


Bowling Green, Ky. - The Sun Belt Conference announced kickoff times for the league's football appearances across the ESPN family of networks in 2012 on Monday, including WKU's two games to be televised on ESPNU.

The Hilltoppers will play two nationally televised Thursday night games over a four-week stretch this fall. The first will be a 6:30 p.m. (CST) kickoff at Troy on Oct. 11. Less than a month later, WKU will host Middle Tennessee in another ESPNU broadcast starting at 8:15 p.m. from Houchens Industries-L.T. Smith Stadium.

WKU had eight televised games during the 2011 season, including three national broadcasts on ESPNU. Additional television opportunities for 2012 will be released in the coming months - including the announcement of the Sun Belt Network schedule in July.

Hmm, I guess WKU wanted the whole country to watch their fannies be smacked by Troy. But seriously, it should be a good game.

Seriously, I worry about the QB. The defense looks about as good as it did the year we won the 1AA national championship in 2002. But then again, that's just during the spring game.

I have absolutely no idea how good Troy will be this year, but I'm planning on going up there to see the Mississippi State and Navy games.
