Middle Tennessee College Football Preview 2021: What Will Happen, Season Prediction

There are way too many good parts in place for Middle Tennessee to continue to be so mediocre.

This was and should be a program that’s deep in the Conference USA title hunt every year under veteran head coach Rick Stockstill, but it appears to have lost its way.

The defense has been hit-or-miss over the years, but the offense almost always seemed to find a way. Now that O should be a bit stronger as long as the line is better, and just about everyone is back on D.

Set The Middle Tennessee Regular Season Win Total At … 6

The Blue Raiders have got to win the close games. Last year all three wins were by six points or fewer, and the difference between 3-6 and 5-4 was five points the other way in close losses.

Monmouth isn’t a layup of an opener, but that has to be a must win. At UConn, FIU, Old Dominion, and throw in at Charlotte and Southern Miss – those all need to be wins if this team is going to be any sort of a threat.

It should be good enough to get to six wins and a bowl game, but with six road games in an eight date run, and seven away games overall, it’s going to be a grind.
