Week 6 Wednesday games feature Conference USA matchup Jacksonville State vs. Middle Tennessee
We’re used to seeing MACtion on Wednesdays, but we’re going to need a special name for midweek Conference USA games. The conference started last week with Thursday games, but has now moved into playing on Wednesdays. Tuesday games come next week as well!
The first of two kickoffs on Wednesday features Jacksonville State vs. Middle Tennessee, as the Gamecocks head to Murfreesboro in search of their fifth win of the season. The other game between Florida International and New Mexico State is on CBS Sports Network, but this one draws ESPNU billing.

Jacksonville State Gamecocks at Middle Tennessee Blue Raiders (-4.5, 51.5)
The Gamecocks outlasted fellow FBS newcomer Sam Houston State in a 35-28 win on the road in Texas last week. This will be the first time that the Gamecocks have played back-to-back road games, but it is a reasonable three-hour bus ride up to the campus of Middle Tennessee. Both teams are on equal footing having played on Thursday of last week.
