MURFREESBORO, Tenn. (AP) — Antonio Martin Jr. ran for 104 yards and a touchdown, Roman Gagliano threw for 173 yards and two scores, and Middle Tennessee took down Nevada 27-20 on Saturday.
The Blue Raiders (2-1) didn’t take a lead until the second half, scored twice in less than four minutes in the fourth quarter, and held on for the win.
Turnovers doomed the Wolfpack (1-2), with two fumbles and an interception in the second half that allowed MTSU to rally.
Dominic Bourgeois kicked a 23-yard field goal that tied the score at 20-all with 9:51 to go, and Martin Jr. ran it in from 3 yards out to put the Raiders up for good.
Koraun Perdue hauled in his only reception for a 23-yard touchdown score, and Cam’Ron Lacy had six grabs for 32 yards and a touchdown for the Blue Raiders. On defense, Ashton Taylor and Korey Smith each had 10 tackles. Jason Hardy had an interception and Jackson Lowe had a sack.
For the Wolfpack, Carter Jones was 15-for-25 passing for 185 yards. Dominic Kelley and Carter Jones each had rushing touchdowns.
