Missouri State Bears vs Middle Tennessee Blue Raiders Betting Prediction
Now we have the Missouri State Bears vs Middle Tennessee Blue Raiders Betting Prediction for both teams.
When comparing the two squads, Missouri State looks better equipped to control the pace and capitalize on Middle Tennessee’s defensive weaknesses. Despite Missouri State’s poor record against the spread and struggles on the road, their recent offensive production — especially through the air — gives them a clear edge over a Middle Tennessee team that can’t seem to find consistency on either side of the ball. Expect the Bears to lean heavily on their passing attack, target the Blue Raiders’ vulnerable secondary, and dominate time of possession. While both teams have struggled to put together complete games this season, Missouri State’s ability to limit turnovers and execute on long drives should be the deciding factor.
Missouri State Bears vs Middle Tennessee Blue Raiders Betting Prediction: Missouri State
Missouri State has shown flashes of resilience this season, bouncing back from a tough start with key wins against Tennessee-Martin and Missouri Southern, while keeping most of their losses close. Their offense, led by a strong passing game that ranks 43rd nationally with 261.8 yards per game, has shown the ability to stretch the field and put up points when needed. However, inconsistency in the run game continues to plague them, as they sit near the bottom of the rankings in rushing yards (117th). On the defensive side, Missouri State struggles against the run but manages to control time of possession, holding the ball for over 31 minutes per game — a key factor that could tilt the tempo in their favor against a Middle Tennessee squad that has struggled to sustain drives.

Missouri State Bears vs Middle Tennessee Blue Raiders Betting Prediction: Middle Tennessee
Middle Tennessee, on the other hand, has been stuck in a difficult stretch, losing seven of their last eight games and failing to cover the spread in eight of their previous nine home matchups. Offensively, the Blue Raiders have lacked punch, averaging just 16.4 points per game, which ranks near the bottom in the FBS (129th). Their passing game offers a glimmer of hope, putting up 229.6 yards per contest, but inefficiency in the red zone and poor protection — allowing over 3.5 sacks per game — has stunted their scoring potential. Compounding their issues is a rushing attack that barely averages 82 yards per game, making their offense predictable and one-dimensional. Defensively, Middle Tennessee gives up over 31 points per game and struggles to get off the field on third down, which could be exploited by Missouri State’s balanced offensive tempo. The Blue Raiders will need a near-perfect defensive effort and a spark from their passing game to turn things around this week.
Missouri State Bears vs Middle Tennessee Blue Raiders Betting Prediction: Middle Tennessee Trends
- The over/under record for Middle Tennessee’s previous eight games is 1-7.
