Bahamas Bowl preview: Getting to know Middle Tennessee State with Underdog Dynasty

Hustle Belt: When you look at the Blue Raiders' schedule, it's hard to point out a marquee win. They beat Marshall, but it finished 27-24 after THREE overtimes. Other than that, we see losses to Illinois and Vanderbilt, as well as blow-out losses to conference foes LA Tech and Western Kentucky. Is the schedule deceiving, or are the Blue Raiders one of those teams that are bowl bound via the product of their schedule?

Jeremy: It is a little bit of both. The Blue Raiders are an incredibly young team that has a redshirt freshman quarterback leading the way.
