MT preps for NT with title hopes in the balance

MURFREESBORO, Tenn. — An upsetting Conference USA loss has left Middle Tennessee with plenty of question marks heading into another tough conference test.

The Blue Raiders (2-4, 1-1) will need to find answers to some of those questions quickly with a Saturday road tilt awaiting at preseason C-USA West Division favorite North Texas (2-4, 1-1).

The blue and white trail the all-time series against the Mean Green by a game, 8-7, and are 1-2 at the new Apogee Stadium.

"North Texas is a really, really good football team," Middle Tennessee head coach Rick Stockstill said.
