The School: Middle Tennessee State University
Record: 0-0 (0-0 in Conference USA). MTSU was 8-5 in 2016. That year, they hung 51 points on Missouri, but lost to Vanderbilt by 23 points. Months later, Vandy lost to 4-8 Mizzou to create an ouroboros of shame for all parties involved.
Ranking: Unranked in the AP Top 25 and Coaches' Poll. The formulas have Middle Tennessee rated 71st in the Real Time RPI (Vanderbilt is 62nd). Idaho is currently ranked 49th, so I’m not sure why I’m putting any stock in these rankings.
