Tickets Going Fast for Top 25 Matchup

MACON, Ga. – As kickoff approaches on Saturday night at Five Star Stadium, #20/#23 Mercer will be coming off a bye week while the Bears' opponent, The Citadel, got the attention of everyone in the Southern Conference upsetting the defending SoCon champion and #8 ETSU, 20-17, on a walk-off field goal. As a result, the Bulldogs moved into the Top 25 in the FCS Nation Radio rankings.

Mitchell Tenpenny
The grandson of famed country music publishing executive Donna Hilley, songwriting is in Mitchell Tenpenny's blood. He has the inborn understanding of how details bring lyrics alive and the contemporary sensibilities to craft songs that country music fans crave. His new eight-song EP Midtown Diaries distills his gift into infectious jams about girls and small towns, anthemic odes to love and raw, rapid-fire heartbreak. Ignited by the juxtaposition of Tenpenny and Jordan Schmidt's progressive co-production and Tenpenny's distinct, textured vocals, Midtown Diaries is the coming-of-age soundtrack for country fans of every vintage. He co-wrote every song. "I want people to find their song on the EP," Tenpenny said. "That's why I gave it so much variety – love songs, break-up songs, weird songs that just feel groovy. I want them to fall in love with this, but in a way that they're like, 'Yes, I need more.'" Midtown Diaries is the follow-up to Tenpenny's debut album Telling All My Secrets, home to his double-platinum 2018 No. 1 smash "Drunk Me." The song led the Nashville native to personal and professional opportunities that range from meeting the love of his life to his co-write and duet on Chris Young's current single "At the End of a Bar." "You don't get chances in this town. You have to earn them," he said. "'Drunk Me' was the only reason people started listening to me. It set rocket fuel to my career."

Other performers on Saturday will include Mackenzie Carpenter, Ace Monroe, and Southside Worship.
