Spring NOTEBOOKTHE GROUP OF...SEVEN

WKU is one of seven “Group of Five” programs to win seven or more games in four consecutive seasons - the longest active streak in Conference USA.

TEAM 2011 2012 2013 2014 2015 WKU 7-5 7-6 8-4 8-5 12-2 Cincinnati 10-3 10-3 9-4 9-4 7-6 Northern Illinois 11-3 12-2 12-2 11-3 8-6 Toledo 9-4 9-4 7-5 9-4 10-2 Boise State 12-1 11-2 8-5 12-2 9-4 San Diego State 8-5 9-4 8-5 7-6 11-3 Arkansas State 10-3 10-3 8-5 7-6 9-4

TOP OF HIS CLASSOf the 20 FBS coaches hired as a part of the 2014 hiring class, only two coaches led their teams to consecutive

bowl victories - Jeff Brohm and Bryan Harsin (Boise State). Only Brohm was a first-year collegiate head coach when he was hired.

TEAM NEW COACH 2014 BOWL 2015 BOWLWKU Jeff Brohm* Bahamas Bowl | W, 49-48 Miami Beach Bowl | W, 45-35Boise State Bryan Harsin Fiesta Bowl | W, 38-30 Poinsettia Bowl | W, 55-7

BROHM SQUAD - YEAR THREEAfter turnover at the head coaching position resulted in three head coaches in three years (Taggart – 2012;

Petrino – 2013; Brohm – 2014), the Hilltoppers enter their third year with head coach Jeff Brohm. Consistency has been key in Brohm’s success as the offensive and defensive systems have remained intact,

regardless of coaching changes. WKU Associate Head Coach and Defensive Coordinator Nick Holt enters his fourth season on The Hill.

REPLACING NUMBER 12The biggest story line of the spring for WKU will no doubt be who replaces All-American quarterback Brandon

Doughty. After three years as the starter, Doughty shattered every passing record on the books and leaves WKU 27-11

as a starter, with a pair of bowl wins, a conference championship and a Top 25 ranking to his ledger. Where Doughty threw for a combined 12,855 yards on 1,491 attempts over his career, the four quarterbacks vying to replace him have combined to attempt 468 passes for 3,131 yards with a large majority of those coming from Mike White’s two years as a starter at South Florida.

While you can spend hours finding more records Doughty set during his three years as a starter, here are the 35 most prominent records and two other C-USA Records.

DON’T FORGET SCHWETTMANWhile the race to replace Doughty will no doubt be the headliner, another point-scoring constant for

the Hilltoppers will have to be replaced in the school’s all-time leader in points scored, placekicker Garrett Schwettman.

A former walk-on, Schwettman was a four-year starter for the Hilltoppers and, in WKU’s two seasons as a member of Conference USA, set the league record for field goal percentage (83.8) while also leading the country in field goal accuracy (93.8) during his senior year.

SCHOOL RECORDS HELD BY GARRETT SCHWETTMAN

KEY OFFENSIVE PIECES RETURNIf there were ever a situation to feel somewhat comfortable about replacing a two-time league MVP at the

quarterback position, WKU might have it in 2016. The HIlltoppers return all five starting offensive linemen, including C-USA First Teamer Forrest Lamp, as well as

a 1,500-yard receiver (Taywan Taylor), a 900-yard receiver (Nicholas Norris), a 1,000-yard rusher (Anthony Wales) and a freshman running back in D’Andre Ferby who was third nationally among freshman with 11 rushing scores last season.

Whoever ultimately replaces Doughty will have the benefit of 129 combined starts on the offensive line alone in front of him.

TOTAL STARTS AROUND THE NEW STARTING QUARTERBACK

DEFENSIVE DEPTHWhere the offense returns a wealth of starting experience, the defensive side of the ball returns a wealth of

game experience but just four starters.Back for 2016 are safeties Marcus Ward and Branden Leston, defensive end Derik Overstreet and linebacker T.J.

McCollum – a combined 84 starts between them as only McCollum is a one-year starter in that group. What the Hilltoppers do return, however, is plenty of depth as a result of playing numerous younger players in 2015.

Of the 32 players on the defense who saw at least three games of action last year, 21 return for 2016 (See list below).

WKU also added a pair of FBS transfers out of Louisville in linebacker Keith Brown and defensive lineman Nick Dawson-Brents who will have one year of eligibility remaining.

Spring NOTEBOOKHILLTOPPERS AT HOME

Under Jeff Brohm, the Hilltoppers have been nearly unstoppable inside the confines of Houchens-Smith Stadium, where they have tallied an 11-1 record since the Brohm Era began.

WKU averages 48.3 points at home under Brohm (580 points over 12 games) and carried a 10-game home winning streak into the offseason, the longest since winning 11 between 1972 and 1974. WKU has won 10 or more games in a row at home just five times in program history and more than nine just five times:

(10) 1992-94, 2003-05; 2014-15; (11) 1972-74; (13) 1987-89; (14) 1931-33.

AT HOME IN THE BROHM ERA

TOUGH OUT OF CONFERENCEAfter going 0-12 against non-conference foes in their first three years as an FBS team (2009-11), WKU has

turned it around and has been on a hot streak against teams from outside their conference.Since 2012, the Hilltoppers are 14-6 against non-conference opponents with their only losses coming at

Indiana and No. 5 LSU (2015), at Illinois (2014), at Tennessee (2013), at No. 1 Alabama (2012) and vs. Central Michigan in the 2012 Little Caesar’s Pizza Bowl. WKU is 11-1 over that same span against teams from outside the Power 5 conferences.

OUT-OF-CONFERENCE WINS SINCE 2012

SIX STRAIGHT 1,000-YARD RUSHERSWKU has had a running back reach the 1,000-yard mark in each of the last six seasons, after becoming just

the second program in NCAA history to have a 1,500-yard rusher in five consecutive seasons. Northern Illinois has a runner go for 1,500 from 2002 to 2006. WKU is tied with Baylor and San Diego State. Auburn and Boise State have seven while Oregon’s streak stands at nine-straight seasons.

2015: Anthony Wales - 1,098 yards 2012: Antonio Andrews - 1,728 yards2014: Leon Allen - 1,542 yards 2011: Bobby Rainey - 1,695 yards2013: Antonio Andrews - 1,730 yards 2010: Bobby Rainey - 1,649 yards

CHECKING THE JERSEYSWKU typically wears a home red with one game in the all-blacks and reserves the white top for the road

games. Let’s take a look at WKU’s record in every jersey combination since 2013:

Head Coach JEFF BROHM

The Brohm FILE Born: April 24, 1971Hometown: Louisville, Ky.College: Louisville ‘94Wife: JenniferChildren: Brady and Brooke

Coaching CAREER2002: Louisville Fire Head Coach (AF2)2003-06: Louisville Quarterbacks2007: Louisville Asst. HC/Passing Game2008: Louisville Asst. HC/OC2009: Florida Atlantic Quarterbacks2010-11: Illinois Quarterbacks2012: UAB OC/Quarterbacks2013: WKU Asst. HC/OC2014-16: WKU Head Coach

Jeff Brohm, a native Kentuckian and one of the state’s most notable football products, enters his third season as the head football coach at WKU.

In just his second year at the helm, Brohm led WKU to arguably its greatest season in school history and certainly its greatest at the FBS level. The Hilltoppers finished No. 24 nationally after they earned their first national ranking, first FBS conference title, and first double-digit win total since moving to the FBS seven years ago. Under Brohm, the Hilltoppers have won consecutive bowl games, coming away with championships in the 2015 Miami Beach Bowl and 2014 Popeyes Bahamas Bowl. He is the first head coach in program history to win 20 games in his first two years.

Brohm’s development of quarterback Brandon Doughty helped carry the Hilltoppers to such lofty heights. Under his direction, Doughty became just the third quarterback in the last 50 years to lead the country in passing yards, pass completions and completion percentage in 2015. Doughty broke every record for a quarterback in the state of Kentucky over his three years as a starter, all with Brohm on staff, and became just the third quarterback in FBS history to lead the country in passing yards and touchdowns in consecutive seasons.

The 2015 Hilltoppers were also the first team in C-USA’s 20-year history to go undefeated in league play and win the conference championship game -- a mark attempted and failed six times prior.

A 13-year collegiate coaching veteran with experience in the Big 10, Big East, Conference USA and Sun Belt conferences, Brohm came to The Hill as the offensive coordinator in 2013 where he directed a high-flying, high-scoring offensive attack that shattered 18 single-season school records including total offense, individual passing yards and individual rushing yards.

He obliterated those marks once he was given full control of the offense.

The Hilltoppers have finished inside the Top 10 in Total Offense (No. 4 in 2014, No. 9 in 2015), Passing Offense (No. 2 in 2014, No. 4 in 2015) and Scoring Offense (No. 6 in 2014, No. 3 in 2015) each of Brohm’s two seasons at the helm. They are one of two program’s in the country to have such a streak, along with TCU.

In Brohm’s first season, WKU broke 50 school and conference records including the school’s single-season and single-game records in total yards (season/game), touchdown passes (season/game), points scored in a season, and a host of others.

Doughty’s 49 touchdown passes and 4,830 yards were national-best numbers as he earned C-USA MVP

honors and the Sammy Baugh Award, given to the nation’s top quarterback. Doughty was even more deadly at home where he finished the year without throwing a single interception to 24 touchdowns. If Doughty had never played a single road game on the year, he would have still broken WKU’s single season touchdown passes record, a record that had stood since 1985 with 22).

As the assistant head coach and offensive coordinator for the Tops, along with Doughty’s improvement, running back Antonio Andrews, now with the Tennessee Titans, broke his own school rushing record, set in 2012, and became just the 11th player in FBS history to rush for 1,700 yards or more in consecutive seasons when he piled up 1,730 rushing yards in 2013.

Brohm spent two years at Illinois before making the move to UAB for the 2012 season. Prior to going to Illinois, Brohm spent the 2009 season as the quarterbacks coach at Florida Atlantic where he was reunited with his college coach, Howard Schnellenberger.

Brohm served as the quarterbacks coach at Louisville from 2003-06, assistant head coach and passing game coordinator in 2007, and the assistant head coach and offensive coordinator in 2008. Under Brohm’s direction, the Cardinals’ passing attack flourished, including a record-breaking season in 2007 with Brohm’s younger brother, Brian, as quarterback.

Brohm began his NFL career in 1994 with the San Diego Chargers, who played in Super Bowl XXIX. He played for the San Francisco 49ers from 1995-97, backing up Hall of Famer Steve Young in 1997.

From 1998-2000, Brohm played for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Denver Broncos and the Cleveland Browns. In 2001, he played in the XFL for the Orlando Rage and was named first team All-XFL as he owned the league’s highest QB rating at 99.9.

Brohm was one of four family members to earn a gridiron letter from Louisville. As a three-year starter for the Cards, Brohm ranks among the all-time leaders for passing yards, touchdown passes, completions, total offense and completion percentage.

As a student-athlete at Louisville, Brohm played two seasons of baseball with the Cleveland Indians’ organization while playing football for the Cards. Brohm also was named the Kentucky High School Player of the Decade for the 1980s.

Brohm received his bachelor’s degree in business administration from Louisville in 1994. He and his wife, Jennifer, have a son, Brady, and daughter, Brooke.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) -- Joe Brown stopped Nathan Marcus a yard shy of the goal line on a two-point conversion attempt with 33 seconds left to preserve Western Kentucky’s 14-12 victory over Vanderbilt on Thursday night.

Brown made an open-field tackle after Marcus caught Johnny McCrary’s pass on the conversion attempt. Vanderbilt had cut the lead to 14-12 when McCrary threw a 2-yard touchdown pass to Trent Sherfield on fourth-and-goal.

Leon Allen had a 4-yard touchdown run and Tyler Higbee caught a 9-yard touchdown pass for Western Kentucky. Higbee set up Allen’s score with a 65-yard reception. Tommy Openshaw kicked field goals of 49 and 26-yards for Vanderbilt. Vanderbilt had three scoreless trips inside Western Kentucky’s 10-yard line. McCrary had two passes intercepted in the end zone, and Openshaw missed a 28-yard field goal after a low snap.

Higbee finally awoke WKU’s offense late in the third quarter when he caught a Brandon Doughty pass, headed to the right sideline and broke free before finally getting brought down at the Vanderbilt 4 to set up the Hilltoppers’ first touchdown.

BOWLING GREEN, Ky. (AP) -- Brandon Doughty threw for 441 yards, redshirt freshman D’Andre Ferby relieved an injured Leon Allen to add a short touchdown among several key runs to help Western Kentucky survive Louisiana Tech 41-38 for an important - yet costly - Conference USA victory Thursday night.

After a brief lull, the Hilltoppers (2-0, 1-0) regrouped behind Doughty and Ferby, who rushed four times for 13 yards on a drive ending with a 1-yard TD run and two-point conversion catch for a 38-24 lead with 54 seconds left in the third quarter.

The Bulldogs scored twice (1-1, 0-1) late in the fourth but ran out of time.

Doughty bounced back from a 209-yard effort at Vanderbilt to complete 28 of 38 passes with a 37-yard touchdown and win the statistical battle with Bulldogs counterpart and Florida transfer Jeff Driskel, who was 28 of 48 for 357 yards and two TDs.

Ferby also rushed 14 times for 39 yards to provide the emotional lift the Hilltoppers needed in this early matchup of C-USA divisional favorites.

BLOOMINGTON, Ind. (AP) -- Jordan Howard ran for 203 yards and Nate Sudfeld threw for 355 yards and three touchdowns Saturday to lead Indiana to a 38-35 victory over Western Kentucky before a crowd of 44,823 at Memorial Stadium.

On the game’s final drive with Indiana clinging to a three-point lead and trying to run out the clock, Howard carried the ball seven times for 39 yards. His final carry, an 8-yard run, took the ball to the Western Kentucky 1 and Indiana opted to take a knee on the game’s final play.

In the first half alone, the Hilltoppers amassed 395 yards of offense.

• With his 325 passing yards, Doughty became just the third quarterback to throw for at least 300 yards on LSU in Tigers last 33 games, joining Mississippi State’s Dak Prescott and Ole Miss’ Bo Wallace. He has thrown for at least 300 yards in 17 of his last 21 games.

• Before his miss in the third quarter, Garrett Schwettman had split the uprights on 88 consecutive PATs, the second-longest streak in WKU history. He is the only kicker to post two streaks of 50+ as he held a run of 59 straight from 10/11/12-11/2/13.

• Taywan Taylor now has 124 career receptions, tying with Alan Mullins (1982-85) for sixth-place in WKU history. His 11 touchdowns this season tie Jared Dangerfield (2014) and Porter Williams (1973) for most in a season in program history.

• Taylor’s 928 yards this season are the third-most in a single season in Hilltopper history as he had his third straight 100-yard game and his fifth in the last six games.

• The 101,561 in attendance is the second-most to ever watch the Hilltoppers play, just 260 people shy of the most ever (2012 at No. 1 Alabama).

• The 428 total yards on offense by WKU were the most given up by LSU at home this season and most since the Mississippi State game (Sept. 20) last season.

BATON ROUGE, La. (AP) -- The Hilltoppers (6-2) were as close to the Tigers as 17-13 on Brandon Doughty’s 39-yard touchdown pass to Antwane Grant in the third quarter, but LSU scored the next 17 points.

Doughty, who came in averaging 387 yards passing, finished 37 of 61 for 325 yards and three TDs. He was intercepted once, by Jamal Adams - the LSU safety’s third interception this season. Taywan Taylor had 10 catches for 103 yards and one TD for Western Kentucky.

LSU finished with 211 yards rushing, well below its average of 325.5 yards coming in. Derrius Guice wound up with the Tigers’ longest run - a late 47-yard touchdown dash. After opening with four Fournette rushes for 15 yards on its first series, LSU took a 7-0 lead on Harris’ deep throw to Dupre.

Yet LSU stuck with running plays for most of the first half with less success than usual, gaining just 82 yards on 23 carries. Western Kentucky, which came in averaging 535.4 yards and 44 points, could not move the ball at its usual pace against LSU’s defense, but managed to tie the game on its fifth possession. D’Andre Ferby broke loose for a 35-yard run, setting up Anthony Wales’ 7-yard touchdown on a shovel pass.

BOWLING GREEN, Ky. (AP) -- The Hilltoppers (10-2, 8-0) earned the right to host the conference championship game on Dec. 5 against the winner of Saturday’s game between Southern Miss and Louisiana Tech to determine the West Division champion.

Doughty also became the [third] quarterback in Division I history to have consecutive seasons with more than 4,000 yards passing and 40 touchdown throws. Doughty completed 27 of his 39 passes against the Thundering Herd (9-3, 6-2). He has 42 touchdown passes for 4,214 yards this season.

The Hilltoppers needed just three plays and 44 seconds to find the end zone in the opening series. Nicholas Norris hauled in Doughty’s pass on a short inside route and turned it into a 35-yard catch and run for the game’s first touchdown. Doughty’s 5-yard touchdown pass to Tyler Higbee pushed the lead to 21-0 with 6:21 to play in the half.

Marshall finally got on the scoreboard when Deandre Reeves returned the ensuing kickoff 97 yards up the right sideline to make it 21-7. The Hilltoppers led 35-14 at halftime and coasted to victory by adding a pair of field goals from Garrett Schwettman in the third quarter and Doughty’s fifth TD pass, a 19-yarder to Antwane Grant in the fourth quarter.

• WKU finishes the season 12-2, which are the most wins in the FBS era and most since the 2002 National Championship team went 12-3.

• WKU becomes just the fifth team in Conference USA history to win 12 games in a season. The league record is 13, accomplished twice.

• Brandon Doughty became the first player in school history and third player in C-USA history to throw for 5,000 yards in a single season as he pushed his season mark to 5,055. He finished the game with 461 yards on 32-of-44 passing and added three touchdowns.

• This marked the second game this season where WKU had a 400-yard passer, a 100-yard rusher and two 100-yard receivers (Miami Ohio).

• WKU has now won 16-straight games against teams from the Group of Five.

• With the 45 points scored by WKU, it surpassed last season’s record for most points scored in a season as the Hilltoppers finished with 620 in 2015.

• Taywan Taylor finishes the season with 1,467 receiving yards, which are the second-most in a single season in Conference USA history.

• Jared Dangerfield became the only player in school history to have multiple seasons in the Top 10 for single-season receiving yards.

BOWLING GREEN, Ky. (AP) -- Brandon Doughty’s final game at WKU perfectly epitomized his career with the Hilltoppers, with a slow start followed by a record-setting finish. Doughty threw for 461 yards and three touchdowns, and No. 25 Western Kentucky overcame an early 14-point deficit to beat South Florida 45-35 in the Miami Beach Bowl on Monday.

Doughty finished the season with 5,055 yards for the Hilltoppers (12-2), the 14th time in FBS history that a quarterback has reached the 5,000 mark. He was probably even better than Willie Taggart thought he would be when he signed him in 2010. Taggart was Doughty’s coach for his first game and the opposing coach for his last, and his Bulls (8-5) nearly stole the show from Doughty with a pair of fourth-quarter touchdowns that got them to 38-35.

But Anthony Wales’ second touchdown of the day, a 42-yard scamper with 5:05 left, helped seal it for the Hilltoppers. Nicholas Norris hauled in touchdown passes of 69 and 55 yards in the third quarter for Western Kentucky, and Jared Dangerfield made a highlight-caliber 26-yard TD catch over three defenders to cap a 28-point third quarter for the Hilltoppers.

Quinton Flowers rushed for two touchdowns and threw for another as the Bulls were in a bowl for the first time since 2010.
