CHARLESTON, S.C. – A whole lot of Dominique Allen. An opportunistic defense. Execution at key moments.
All the right buttons for The Citadel proved to be too much for the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga on Saturday.
Allen rushed for 135 yards and two first-half touchdowns, and the eighth-ranked Bulldogs defeated the third-ranked Mocs 22-14 in front of 14,590 at Johnson Hagood Stadium in a battle of 2015 Southern Conference co-champions.
The Bulldogs (6-0, 4-0) remain the only undefeated team in the league, while the Mocs (6-1, 4-1) lost for only the second time in their past 19 conference games.
The Mocs host Virginia Military Institute this week.
