Blue Fridays

The Middle Tennessee Athletic Department encourages the middle Tennessee community to continue the tradition of Blue Fridays this upcoming school year.

Since 2005, Blue Raider fans throughout the region have made a point of wearing blue on Fridays while also flying their MT Car Flags.

This tradition reinforces our sense of pride and brings attention to our football team by utilizing one of the most beautiful colors that can be displayed in all of college athletics.

"I love the idea of having 'Blue Fridays' before our football games and remind our faculty, staff and students to wear blue to school," said Director of Athletics Chris Massaro. "We also want high school and elementary school students and the businesses throughout Rutherford County and the middle Tennessee area to do the same: wear their

blue to work before our football games as a signal that Saturday is a big day for us."
