MTSU's football team bounced back from a disappointing loss at home to Vanderbilt, but with a thrilling 30-23 victory at Syracuse last week.
The task at hand on Saturday figures to be much tougher with the Blue Raiders play at Minnesota. Kickoff is set for 2:30 p.m. at TC Bank Stadium.
"I was really proud of our team and how we responded to Syracuse," MTSU coach Brent Stockstill said. "I told them last week (against Vanderbilt) how much I believed in them. I said 'you got beat by a good team, but we're a good team also'.
