MURFREESBORO, Tenn. — After a much needed off week, Middle Tennessee football was back on the practice field Sunday afternoon, continuing their preparation for a trip out west to El Paso to take on UTEP on Saturday evening.

Currently, the game is tied for the latest kickoff on ESPN+ that night, kicking off at 8 p.m. CT, 7 p.m. local time in the Sun Bowl. A fact that was not lost on head coach Rick Stockstill.

"We've got to do a good job of handling our day, organizing our day on Saturday because it is a long day," Stockstill said.
