With 14 spring practice sessions in the books, the Toppers are set to give WKU fans a glimpse of what to expect this season in the annual Red and White Spring Game today at 1:00 p.m. in Smith Stadium.

The game will be played with a normal game clock in the first half followed by a running clock in the second half.

A staple this spring has been improving in areas where the Toppers struggled last season. According to first-year Head Coach Jeff Brohm, the Spring Game is a chance for the Toppers to exhibit what they’ve learned thus far.
