Western Kentucky Players Trip over Each Other Running out of the Tunnel

Western Kentucky players were a bit too fired up for Thursday's regular-season opener against Rice. 

One WKU player tripped and fell while running onto the field before the contest, and this set into motion a domino effect that resulted in several of his teammates taking spills. 

While it was an embarrassing moment, this didn't prevent Western Kentucky from jumping out to a 30-7 lead over Rice in the first half.
