BOCA RATON, Fla. – With a 24-13 win over Bowling Green in Week 4, Middle Tennessee wrapped up its non-conference slate with a .500 record. Now, Florida Atlantic enters the Blue Raiders' crosshairs.

The Raiders will take their 2-2 record to Boca Raton, where they've shown dominance over the Owls (1-3) in recent seasons. Middle Tennessee owns an 11-3 overall record in the series and 5-1 mark at FAU, and it's won nine straight dating back to 2008, the longest active winning streak by a C-USA team over another C-USA team.

"Obviously, it's a critical game, our first conference game and the first conference game for both of us," MT head coach Rick Stockstill said.
