Raiders thankful for time together
MURFREESBORO, Tenn. — It's easy to see what Middle Tennessee's football players are thankful for this season — they're finally getting a chance to be at home, and they get to eat.
Every year, the Blue Raiders have an opportunity on Thanksgiving to sit down with each other at a couple of long tables and share a meal. Players, coaches and football staff cherish the few hours they get to spend having conversations, enjoying each other's company and, of course, eating too much food.
"It makes us feel together and makes us feel like a family," redshirt junior defensive end Jordan Ferguson said. "I'm looking forward to the food and getting fat."
