LOUISIANA-MONROE at MIDDLE TENNESSEE STATE -- Last year's 10-0 loss by MTSU was a bitter pill to swallow. We know, because we were on the wrong side. But with revenge a major motivator, look for a fully-focused effort at home from a Blue Raider squad that has at least shown the ability to move the football (536 yards last week vs. La. Tech). La-Monroe has been out-scored 197-19 by Division I-A competition. Special teams is a major concern (five blocked punts already!). And an already shaky QB situation has been muddled by injury problems, leaving third-stringer Andre Vige, who started for this team as a freshman, to be the signal-caller. Vige threw two interceptions last week, one of which was returned for a TD, and he had not seen action previous to that this season or all of last season. While it appears not even the presence of ex-Charger QB Stan Humphries (QB coach) can help the Indians' passing attack, MTSU has experienced much more offensive fluidity this year (10 offensive starters returned), and running back Dwone Hicks (311 yards and six TD's last week - already 740 yards for the year) has become a revelation. And ULM has dropped 13 of its last 15 games ATS on the road. There's a SIX-point line move on this game. THE PLAY: MIDDLE TENNESSEE STATE **
