ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. – The early going was positive for the Tennessee Tech football team on Saturday night. The Golden Eagles forced turnovers, moved the ball and ended the first stanza all square at 7-7. That changed in the second quarter as New Mexico outscored Tech 21-3 before the half, then scored 28 unanswered points in the second half as the Lobos out of the Football Bowl Subdivision Mountain West Conference defeated the Golden Eagles 56-10.

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. – Since 1984, the Tennessee Tech football team has made trips all over the country to face its bigger brothers in the Football Bowl Subdivision. There’s only been eight seasons in those 39 years where the Golden Eagles didn’t – 1989, 1992 through 1996, 2014 and 2020, though the last one is a misnomer as the COVID-19 pandemic wiped out scheduled FBS contests against Minnesota and Southern Miss, and the spring 2021 campaign was primarily on the Football Championship Subdivision level. This season, the Golden Eagles will load up the plane and soar to Albuquerque to take on the New Mexico Lobos out of the Mountain West Conference.
GREENVILLE, S.C. – Last season, Furman’s defense was a ball hawk, standing as one of the best pass defenses in the Division I Football Championship Subdivision.

Tech (0-1) returns to action next Saturday as the Golden Eagles head to Albuquerque to take on New Mexico. The Golden Eagles had six turnovers in all in the contest, those leading to 28 points for the Paladins. However, even with the miscues, there were still positives in the contest for Tech.

GREENVILLE, S.C. – Camp and workouts are over. As the Tennessee Tech football team loads up the busses for Thursday’s season opener at No. 6-ranked Furman, the Golden Eagles begin a new campaign ready to improve and work toward a Big South-OVC championship.

The game will be streamed on ESPN+ with Pete Yanity and Jay Sonnhalter handling the broadcast, while the game can be heard locally on 98.5 KISS FM with Roger Ealey and Dylan Vazzano on the call.
