Middle Tennessee Struggling Mightily

So far this season, the Middle Tennessee Blue Raiders have lost four games in a row, putting them at 1-4 on the season. The Blue Raiders have not beaten an FBS opponent yet this year, losing all four of their FBS vs FBS matchups by at least 17 points each. Here, Middle Tennessee will look to buck that trend. But for that to happen, the offense of the Blue Raiders needs to wake up, as they have yet to score more than 21 points in a game against an FBS adversary this season.

Louisiana Tech Hopes to Avoid Another Heartbreaker

Heartbreak has been the theme of this season so far for the Louisiana Tech Bulldogs, who are 1-3 overall and 0-1 in Conference USA play on the year. The Bulldogs have also not beaten an FBS opponent yet this season, but all three of their FBS losses have come by 10 or fewer points. Their last two games have resulted in an overtime loss to Tulsa and a seven-point loss to Florida International. The Bulldogs will need to keep their composure in key moments in this game if they want to avoid another demoralizing defeat.

Middle Tennessee vs Louisiana Tech Best Bet
