Louisiana Tech defensive tackle Jordan Bradford was flagged for throwing a punch against Texas Tech last week, which is an immediate disqualification in college football and typically a suspension for the first half of the next game.

Sources tell BleedTechBlue.com the Conference USA office ruled early this week Bradford could play against Middle Tennessee in the first half Saturday because there was not enough video evidence to justify a suspension.

Bradford is a sophomore defensive tackle who has started all three of Tech's games this season and has 7 tackles, 1.5 tackles for a loss, .5 a sack along with two quarterback hurries.
