Anyone notice that MTSU beat Maryland?

but MTSU is a fairly tough Sun Belt team. Playing there won't be a cakewalk, but the win over Maryland shouldn't be overblown. I honestly thought they'd win by more against Maryland.
a good close game at worst maybe but no way they blow us out. We played Ron Franklin's offense with arguably better talent last year and held them to 3 points.
Absolutely no running game, other than the QB scrambling. Dasher is more an athlete than a true QB, but when he is on he can light it up. He tends to make a few bad decisions when under pressure.
MSU-MT will come down to (a) how well MT can hold up against Dixon for 4 quarters and (b) the amount of pressure MSU can put on Dasher. If MSU can't get to Dasher either due to the speed of their no huddle or because of all the cut blocks, then MT has enough receivers to cause MSU's secondary problems.
I am expecting a really close game. I think MSU will win, but will not be surprised if MT does.
MT's version of Franklin's offense is to what he ran at Auburn like Croom's tenure was to competent, innovative coaching.
