NASHVILLE- After Western’s 68-54 upset win against Louisville, coach Ken McDonald didn’t want to leave the interview room when a call was put out for one more question. “You do that at Murray State when we lost by 40,” McDonald told the sports information director.

MURRAY– Western didn’t score into the double-digits until seven minutes into the game, and by that time Murray Sate had gained a 20 point advantage en route to a 89-61 blowout victory Saturday night.

Coach David Elson made a pretty simple statement following Western’s 21-10 loss to Middle Tennessee State on Saturday. “It’s beginning to be a broken record,” Elson said. If things truly have become a broken record, the record player is probably tripped up on the song about defensive struggles on third down and troubles rushing the ball on offense.
