CHATTANOOGA---The 18th-ranked Chattanooga Mocs are in the home stretch. Five Southern Conference games down and three to go as they hit the road for the next two at Western Carolina and The Citadel.
Â
First things first, the trip to Cullowhee sees two squads vying for championship hardware. The Mocs and Mercer are tied for first at 4-1 with the Catamounts and ETSU tied for third at 3-1. Oddly enough, the Bears and Bucs also square off on "1-loss Saturday in the SoCon".
Â
Chattanooga enters with the league's stoutest defense per performances in league play, while Western features the most potent offense. The last two meetings have gone down to the buzzer with a 32-29 loss in Cullowhee, and last year's 52-50 thriller that went the Catamounts way on a walk-off field goal.
Â
Stretch out from that small sample size and the series favors the Mocs. They've won 11 of the last 14 and 15 of 19 including seven of nine at Western.
