GAME WEEK PRIMER | TICKETS
 
CHATTANOOGA---The 6th-ranked Chattanooga Mocs are preparing for a trip to No. 24 Furman this weekend. It's another big week after the 41-21 win over No. 11 Mercer. The Mocs quickly flipped the script to this game week during today's press conference.
 
Junior center Nick Cerimele and senior defensive back CaMiron Smith joined Coach Rusty Wright in front of a media grouping covering TV, newspapers and radio. They discussed road trips, ranked opponents, first-rate fourth quarter work and more.
