Western Kentucky Hilltoppers vs. New Mexico State Aggies - News: Nov 9, 2024

FINAL
Donovan Faupel - Catches TD Faupel caught two passes for 36 yards and a touchdown against WKU on Saturday.
Impact These are Faupel's first catches of the season, so don't expect much from him.

Mike Washington - Best game of the year Washington ran 19 times for 152 yards and two touchdowns against WKU on Saturday. He did fumble twice, though, and lost one of them.
Impact That's back-to-back games for Washington where he has averaged 8.0 yards per carry, which obviously pops. This is also his first lost fumble. Maybe skip Washington against Texas A&M, but ending the season with MTSU and UTEP is good for the back.
NOVEMBER 10, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Seth McGowan - Biggest game of the season McGowan ran 15 times for 113 yards and a touchdown and caught three passes for 47 yards against WKU on Saturday.
Impact This is McGowan's first 100-yard game of the season, and he got back in the end zone for the first time since NMSU's second game. The former Oklahoma recruit has averaged 5.2 yards per carry, and notably has not fumbled once. While McGowan's next game is against Texas A&M, after that things look good for him.

Brandon Nunez - Remarkably bad in relief Nunez saw some action in relief of Santino Marucci against WKU on Saturday. He missed on both of his passes, and while he ran eight times for 34 yards, he also lost two fumbles.
Impact Marucci has been pulled on multiple occasions, but he keeps getting returned to the starting role. Why? Because of games like this from Nunez, who managed to lose two fumbles while barely seeing the field.

Santino Marucci - Throws TD, two INTs Marucci went 10-for-20 for 129 yards, a touchdown, and two interceptions against WKU on Saturday. He also ran eight times for 20 yards.
Impact Marucci retook the starting role for the Aggies, and he was bad. That makes sense, because he has been bad every time he's taken the field save for against New Mexico's terrible defense. The only thing, though, is that backup Brandon Nunez appeared in this game and was somehow way worse. Marucci is the starter by default.
NOVEMBER 10, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Easton Messer - Reels in TD Messer caught four passes for 69 yards and a touchdown against NMSU on Saturday.
Impact That's back-to-back games with a touchdown for Messer. He's built upon last season well, even if he remains in a secondary role. Through nine games he has four touchdowns, and his 495 yards are more than his 484 from all of last season.
NOVEMBER 10, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
K.D. Hutchinson - Catches TD Hutchinson caught four passes for 73 yards and a score Saturday versus NMSU.
Impact Hutchinson is all-or-nothing, making big splashes or not being involved. He has three games with over 70 yards and a touchdown, and three games where he has not even been targeted.
