- The last time the Mocs came back from 12 points or more in the second half? 12 points exactly (41-29) at UNCG on Feb. 28, 2015. That game ended on a buzzer-beater three by Ronrico White.
- The last time the Mocs won back-to-back games when trailing at the half? February 2015. That was three in a row against ETSU (22-30), at VMI (31-36) and at UNCG (25-27). It was a part of a six-game winning streak with the last five being behind or tied at the break.
- The first 100 minutes of the season, Chattanooga made 51 of 156 of its shot attempts. That's 32.7 percent. The Mocs shot 55.2 percent (16-29) in the last 20.
- -10 on the boards with 37 compared to 47 for their hosts. That included 16 offensive rebounds after the first two opponents – Eastern Kentucky (7) & Tennessee State (5) – combined for just 12.
