CUSA Bowl Season: WKU

After Saturday’s split performance WKU put CUSA ahead 2-1 this bowl season after destroying Memphis in the Boca Raton Bowl.

• ESPN Highlights
• Anthony Wales ran 35 times for 240 yards and three scores. WKU continued their run of offensive dominance in 2016, racking up their seventh game with 50+ points, 11th with 40+ including 10( !!! )  in a row, and racked up 598 yards in this game. They are good, and this was why when NT was dominated 45-7, it was difficult to be upset. As the reigning back-to-back CUSA champion, their performance had an even greater significance. If CUSA is to be taken seriously, the best teams need to play like it. Memphis lost their QB and coach after last season’s top 25 run, but did have a good 8-5 year and beat upset Houston. WKU did the conference some good tonight.
