Daily Football Roundup 10-15

Buffs again play role of underdog vs. ACU

Greg Jaklewicz

Don Carthel likes the underdog's role.

Correction. He lives by it.

Taking the West Texas A&M football job was perfect for Carthel, who led underdog Eastern New Mexico to the 1991 Lone Star Conference championship. WT certainly was an underdog, having gone 5-27 the three seasons before he arrived in Canyon in 2005.

From the Bullpen

After two weeks of being in the Lone Star Conference spotlight, the Midwestern State Mustangs won’t be involved in the “Game of the Week” this Saturday.

That honor belongs to Abilene Christian and West Texas A&M as the contest will also have regional and national implications.
