For the rest of the season, the Blue Raiders play in the conference. Our first game of this five game stretch see the Indians of Arkansas State come into the Skillet. This is a team that we have absolutely owned since joining the Sunbelt, going 7-1 against them if I am not mistaken. Hopefully this weekend will see more of the same.
The Indians bring with them a two pronged running attack and will not throw the ball very much. The defensive front of the Blue Raiders will be tested by this team as they may be the best runners we have seen this season. Arkansas State's Corey Leonard won the Sunbelt Player of the Week over our very own Dwight Dasher. This will certainly provide some bulletin board material for the team this week.
Arkansas State's defense has given up some yards, so they may have a problem with the likes of Dasher and Desmond Gee. Middle Tennessee seems to have turned the corner with our win over Memphis.
I look for this weekend to be more of the same. We may now get the blow-out win like we have seen in the past, but Floyd will be jacked up and the atmosphere should be awesome on a perfect football weekend.
