Senior running back Shane Tucker of Middle Tennessee State caught a 10-yard scoring strike from quarterback Brent Stockstill with 6:46 left in the game, breaking a tie with Syracuse and earning a 30-23 win on Saturday in the Carrier Dome.

Tucker’s third catch of the game was the difference as the Blue Raiders from Conference USA upset the Orange from the Atlantic Coast Conference. That game-winning reception is this week’s U.S. Farm-Raised Catfish “Catch of the Week.”

Remember … for the tailgate tent or the pre-game party, U. S. Farm-Raised Catfish is always “the winning catch.”

The Catfish Institute, or TCI, was formed in 1986 by catfish farmers and feed manufacturers to raise consumer awareness of the positive qualities of U.S. Farm-Raised Catfish. Since its formation, U.S. per capita consumption has more than doubled.
U.S. Farm-Raised Catfish is a sustainable and environmentally friendly seafood product. The National Audubon Society, Monterey Bay Aquarium, and Environmental Defense all recommend U.S. Farm-Raised Catfish as a safe environmental choice. To find out more, visit www.uscatfish.com.
