DENTON, Texas — For a time Saturday, it looked as if MTSU planned to employ a healthy dose of the two-quarterback package it unveiled a week earlier against Arkansas State.

By halftime, the Blue Raiders were down to one healthy quarterback, Joe Craddock who had lost his job as the starter six weeks ago when he sustained a back injury.

The redshirt-junior stepped in for starter Dwight Dasher after Dasher left in the final minute of the first half with what initially has been diagnosed as a sprained left knee. Craddock completed only three of 13 pass attempts from that point but did enough to keep the Blue Raiders a step ahead of the Mean Green in a 48-28 victory at Fouts Field.
