MURFREESBORO, Tenn. — Middle Tennessee football looks to bounce back after a tough conference opener at UTSA last week when it heads to Charlotte to face the 49ers on Friday. The game will kick off at 5:30 p.m. central time in the Queen City, with TV coverage on CBSSN.
Friday games have become a staple in modern college football, where game times are often dictated by TV contracts more than other factors. In this case, it creates a short week for the Blue Raiders to prepare for the 2-1 49ers, who are coming off a loss to Georgia State this past Saturday.
