So we tried to work on the little things, especially with us going into a hostile environment next week against Louisiana Tech.Western Kentucky (3-2) wasted no time, going 82 yards in just four plays on the opening drive for the games first touchdown. Anthony Wales capped the march, running nearly untouched through the Houston Baptist (2-3) defense for a 45-yard touchdown less than a minute-and-a-half into the contest.Mike Whites 34-yard touchdown pass to Norris made it 14-3 after the first quarter.We came out and did what we needed to do and executed early on, Western Kentucky coach Jeff Brohm said. We moved the ball, scored points, and took care of the football. We improved upon certain things that we didnt do well last week. Overall, we just took care of business, it was a good win.The Hilltoppers scored so fast and so often, that they had only 15:33 of possession through three quarters, compared to 29:27 for the Huskies, despite leading by 47 points.Houston Baptist coach Vic Shealy knew quickly that his Huskies were overwhelmed. Houston Baptist is in only its fourth season of fielding a football team.When your only two losses are against SEC schools, and one of them is an overtime loss that many probably would like to have over again, you know they are a quality team coming in playing, Shealy said. They didnt disappoint. Theyre really athletic, well coached and play hard. We knew who we were playing.Brohm emphasized getting back on track after last Saturdays 31-30 overtime loss to Vanderbilt.I think it was important to clean some things up and learn from our mistakes, Brohm said. And thats kind of how weve been the last couple of years. We just try to improve each and every week. Were pretty good at learning from our mistakes, being critical of ourselves. We did that today.Norris also caught a 19-yard pass from White in the second quarter and had an 85-yard touchdown run on an end-around to open the Hilltoppers scoring in the third period.Also, in a 20-point third quarter, Nacarius Fant had a 50-yard punt return for a touchdown and Marcus Trigg had a 12-yard touchdown run.Skyler Simcox added a 50-yard field goal as the game was quickly out of hand.Houston Baptists only points came on a 25-yard field goal by Alec Chadwick with 34 seconds left in the opening quarter.THE TAKEAWAYHouston Baptist: The Huskies have now given up at least 50 points in all three of their losses this season.
