SENATOBIA – As conference play starts to heat up, week five of college football will see a multitude of Rangers hit the field with their respective teams.
The weekend gets off to an early start on Friday, October 2 when Josh Humes and Delaware take on Liberty at 6:00 PM. The game will be broadcast on CBS Sports Network.
The excitement starts early Saturday morning with the undefeated #16 Mississippi State Bulldogs along with Dre Riley and Jakheem Shumpert taking on #7 Alabama at 11:00 A.M. on ABC.
There are only two Ranger vs Ranger matchups this week. The first one takes place when Caleb Estrada and Chicago State take on Fredd Adams and #4 Tarleton State at 6:00 p.m. on ESPN+. The next former teammate battle occurs when M.J. Johnson and Southern Miss travel to face Marion Keyes, Hayden Wolfe, Hayden Dozier and the rest of Troy's team.
As the season continues to progress, more Rangers will find themselves in a bye week. This is the case for five former Rangers this weekend.
