MURFREESBORO, Tenn. — Four grueling nonconference games are in the books, and now Middle Tennessee's focus turns to Conference USA division title defense.
The defending East Division champion Blue Raiders (1-3) kick off their C-USA slate Saturday at home against the always-tough Marshall Thundering Herd (2-2).
"Opening up conference play this week, we're excited to get started in that," MT head coach Rick Stockstill said. "We've got a tough challenge ahead of us, and we're looking forward to it."
The contest is scheduled for a 2:35 p.m. kickoff inside Floyd Stadium.
