Missouri State vs Middle Tennessee Prediction
These are two dreadful teams on both sides of the ball so it’s not a game I’m looking to spend my Wednesday watching. With that said, Missouri State has shown more signs of life in games it should compete, while Middle Tennessee is 128th in scoring offense, 115th in scoring defense, and has failed to cover 8 of its last 10 games. Middle Tennessee has little to no betting value these days, and I’m going to fade whenever given the chance. We’re not being asked to lay much with Missouri State, a team that beat Marshall as a touchdown dog, and did some things against SMU. Missouri State is the better team, even if that’s not saying much. Give me Missouri State on the road.
