GAME WEEK: Homecoming Takes Center Stage

Terrell Owens

NFL Hall of Famer Terrell Owens is coming back to support his Chattanooga Mocs and take the community by storm.

First Look
It's Homecoming Week for the Chattanooga Mocs. Saturday's matchup with Western Carolina is the first of back-to-back weeks in Finley Stadium as the stretch run begins. The Mocs enter the week 4-4 overall, 3-1 over the first half of the Southern Conference slate.
 
Breakdown
  • The Mocs are third in SoCon standings with Nos. 1, 2 & 4 all coming up in the next three weeks. The Catamounts are second, a half-game behind Mercer in first and a game clear of the Mocs.
  • The home finale comes against fourth-place Furman a week from Saturday followed by a trip to Macon to face the Bears. The regular season finale is Nov. 22 at Wofford.
  • WR/PR AJ Little's 47-yard punt return for a touchdown in the second quarter at Samford Saturday was his second of the season. He's just the third Moc with multiple returns for TD in a season joining Jerry Ellison (3 KO in 1992) and Tommy Hudson (2 PR in 2014).
  • Chattanooga's defense will have its hands full this week with a dangerous Catamounts attack. The defensive front is trending the right way coming off five sacks at Samford.
