NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) -- Joe Brown stopped Nathan Marcus a yard shy of the goal line on a two- point conversion attempt with 33 seconds left to preserve Western Kentucky’s 14-12 victory over Vanderbilt on Thursday night.

Brown made an open-field tackle after Marcus caught Johnny McCrary’s pass on the conversion attempt. Vanderbilt had cut the lead to 14-12 when McCrary threw a 2-yard touchdown pass to Trent Sherfield on fourth-and-goal.

Leon Allen had a 4-yard touchdown run and Tyler Higbee caught a 9-yard touchdown pass for Western Kentucky. Higbee set up Allen’s score with a 65-yard reception. Tommy Openshaw kicked field goals of 49 and 26-yards for Vanderbilt. Vanderbilt had three scoreless trips inside Western STATISTICS LEADERS Kentucky’s 10-yard line. McCrary had two passes intercepted in the end zone, and Openshaw missed a 28-yard field goal after a low snap.

Higbee finally awoke WKU’s offense late in the third quarter when he caught a Brandon Doughty pass, WKU headed to the right sideline and broke free before finally getting brought down at the Vanderbilt 4 to set up the Hilltoppers’ first touchdown.
