RJ's take: Tyson Helton has two capable starters for one spot at QB in Caden Veltiamp and well-traveled T.J. Finley.

Finley spent last year at Texas State, passed for 3,439 yards, and Will Friend will have plenty of ways to help him keep that offensive attack prolific.

Western Kentucky's Win Total Odds: Over 7 (-150) Under 7 (+120)
