Football Road Remains Tough

The weekend schedule doesn’t get any easier for two area college football teams.  Eastern Kentucky University came from behind to win 28 to 16 over Tennessee Martin Saturday.  The Colonels travel back to the Volunteer state this weekend to battle Tennessee State.  The Tigers are undefeated at five and oh.  The University of Kentucky, coming off a 21 point loss to South Carolina, stay home to host Mississippi State.  The Bulldogs come to Commonwealth without a loss.  Western Kentucky University won its third game in a row, beating Arkansas State in a comeback win 26-13.  The Hilltoppers play again a week from Thursday against conference foe Troy State. And the University of Louisville has a weekend off after beating Southern Mississippi 21 to 17.

Stu Johnson retired from WEKU in November, 2024 after reporting for the station for 40 years. Stu's primary beat was Lexington/Fayette government.
