Western Kentucky Hilltoppers vs. South Florida Bulls
Once again, we find ourselves looking at another bowl game that features two contrasting styles of play. With the Hilltoppers sensational passing prowess (365.4 PYPG, 6th in FBS) and the Bulls running capabilities (242.9 RYPG, 11th in FBS), this matchup will premiere two underrated opponents who will look to cap off their season with a bowl victory. Despite the Bulls rock solid defense (21.1 PAPG, 25th in FBS), the Hilltoppers have one of the most gifted passers in college football. Senior quarterback Brandon Doughty has been nearly flawless as the Hilltoppers reliable quarterback. Between his remarkable accuracy (71.8 CMP%) and aggressiveness as a downfield passer (9.26 yards per pass), Doughty has all the tools to dismantle the Bulls defense. Although the Bulls have a hefty running back in sophomore Marlon Mack (6.6 yards per carry, 1273 rushing yards on the season), their lack of a potent passing game puts them at a severe disadvantage to a Western Kentucky team that won't let up when it comes to executing their score happy offense.
