CHATTANOOGA---The summer continues to roll along with FCS preseason polls coming out.
The Mocs were picked 20th in the first poll of the summer, the Athlon Sports FCS Top 25. HeroSports.com agrees with that assessment with Chattanooga in between HBCU's North Carolina A&T in 19th and Alcorn State in 21st.
 
There are three Southern Conference schools mentioned with VMI tied for 13th, while ETSU slots in tied at 23. Home opening opponent Austin Peay is 18th up from 23 per Athlon.
 
The 2020-21 campaign saw the squad post a 3-2 mark, 3-1 in the Southern Conference before it came to an abrupt end due to COVID-19. All 11 starters are back on offense with additional depth apparent with the number of backups that got extended looks.
 
Jacobs Blocking Award winner Cole Strange anchors an offensive line that has three different running backs behind it with collegiate 100-yard games. Ditto on defense which was dominant with All-America defensive lineman Devonnsha Maxwell headlining the crew.
 
The Mocs are readying for the 2021 fall campaign. Home games await hosting Austin Peay, Western Carolina, ETSU, Furman and The Citadel. It opens on Thursday, Sept. 2, with a visit from the Governors. Kickoff is scheduled for 7:30 p.m.
