Live scores, highlights and updates from the Liberty vs. Middle Tenn. football game
The Liberty Flames will look to defend their home field on Tuesday against the Middle Tennessee Blue Raiders at 7:00 p.m. ET at Williams Stadium. Liberty will be coming into the game with an undefeated record on the line.
Liberty was not the first on the board last Tuesday, but they got there more often. They enjoyed a cozy 31-13 win over Jacksonville State. The score was all tied up 10-10 at the break, but Liberty was the (much) better team in the second half.
Quinton Cooley was the offensive standout of the game as he rushed for 163 yards and two touchdowns. Cooley is on a roll when it comes to rushing yards, as he's now rushed for 100 or more in the last three games he's played. Kaidon Salter also deserves a shout-out for his two touchdowns.
Middle Tennessee can finally bid farewell to their three-game losing streak thanks to their game on Tuesday. They came out on top against Louisiana Tech by a score of 31-23. The over/under was set at 53.5 points, so nice work oddsmakers; you were right on the money.
Nicholas Vattiato looked great while leading his team to the win, throwing for 248 yards and two touchdowns while completing 79.3% of his passes, and also punching in a touchdown on the ground. The team also got some help courtesy of Jaiden Credle, who rushed for 65 yards and a touchdown.
Their wins bumped Liberty to 6-0 and Middle Tennessee to 2-5.
The two teams pleased both fans and bettors in their last matchups by winning and covering the spread. Looking ahead, Liberty is the favorite in this one, as the experts expect to see them win by 14 points. Currently 5-1 against the spread, they have been a solid investment this season; on the other hand, Middle Tennessee is only 2-5 ATS.
