Middle Tennessee bounces back; Upsets Syracuse in the Dome 30-23

After a rough game last week and a slow start today, the Blue Raider offense that fans were waiting to see finally showed up to play. Middle Tennessee Blue Raiders came from behind, scoring on three of their last four drives, to top the Syracuse Orange 30-23.

The offensive improvements started up front with the line. As the game progressed, they were about to give quarterback Brent Stockstill time to throw which turned out to be huge in this one, especially after early turnovers. The Blue Raiders were able to overcome all of this adversity and find offense when it needed it most.
