MT set to take on nationally ranked Marshall

HUNTINGTON, W.V. — Middle Tennessee will be up against a lot when it travels to Marshall Saturday to take on the ranked Thundering Herd, the Raiders' first game since Oct. 24.

The Blue Raiders (2-5, 2-3) will look for their first-ever win over a ranked team as they meet the No. 16 Herd (6-0, 3-0) on an emotional day for Marshall.

"This will be our first game in three weeks when we play, which will be a little unique," MT head coach Rick Stockstill said. "It's a great opportunity for us to go up there and play a really good football team.
