Coming off facing one offensive juggernaut in Louisiana Tech last week, FIU gets another one this week when Middle Tennessee comes to town. The Blue Raiders are second in several offensive categories in Conference USA.
However, Middle Tennessee now has the top offense in C-USA in total yards thanks to the Panthers keeping the Bulldogs under their yardage average last week. The Blue Raiders are averaging 548.9 yards per game which is tops in C-USA. MT is second in the conference in rushing (194.4 yards per game) and second in passing (354.4 yards per game). The FIU defense will have its hands full Saturday.
