The Battle for the Palladium could return this fall – and be up for grabs twice.
Middle Tennessee athletics director Chris Massaro announced Thursday that the Blue Raiders were in discussions to play Troy twice in a home-and-home format for the upcoming season.
No contracts, though, have been signed, said Massaro.
According to Massaro, the teams would meet in Murfreesboro, Tenn., on Sept. 5 or 19 and in Troy on Nov. 21.
The games would renew the old “Battle for the Palladium” rivalry played from 2003-2012 when both teams were Sun Belt Conference members.
Troy has not made any announcement relating to its schedule.
