Western Carolina gave the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga football team some opportunities to make big plays.
And the Mocs took full advantage of them.

Four of those plays came in the passing game, where the Mocs have been hit-and-miss at times this season.
“We’re capable of doing that each and every week,” receivers coach Will Healy said. “It’s just what do we need to do to help ourselves win the football game. Jacob (Huesman) can make any throw you want him to, and our guys can find ways to be open. We’ve just got to be consistent catching the ball, but we’ve also got to do our job in the run game.”
Quarterback Huesman had completions of 29 yards to Richardre Bagley, 16 to Xavier Borishade, 49 to James Stovall and 35 yards to C.J. Board as the Mocs had 384 yards of total offense in the first half in building a 35-6 advantage.
