Dwight Dasher, the Blue Raiders quarterback, threw for 162 yards and stacked another 103 yards. However, he was intercepted four times by the RedHawks that kept Middle Tennessee from winning.
Dayonne Nunley transformed one of those turnovers into a 52 yards touchdown to help the RedHawks take a 21–14 lead in the beginning of third period.
Later, Phillip Tanner helped the Blue Raiders to tie the game with a 54-yard run. However, the RedHawks quarterback Austin Boucher outscored Middle Tennessee by throwing two touchdown passes.
Boucher went 23-of-37 for 297 yards for the RedHawks, who ended the season 10–4. Merriweather piled on 100 yards while carrying the ball 27 times, along with scoring on a pair of 3-yard runs in the first half of the game.
