The University of Tennessee at Chattanooga’s defense has already face one five-star prospect this football season.
Saturday night, the Mocs will face another.
Derrius Guice, LSU’s preseason All-America running back, will be the leader for the Football Bowl Subdivision’s 12th-ranked Tigers (1-0) when they host the Football Championship Subdivision’s 13th-ranked Mocs (0-1) in “Death Valley” in Baton Rouge, La.
The 7:30 p.m. game, once set to air on an SEC Network alternate channel, has been moved to the SEC Network’s main station due to Florida’s game against Northern Colorado being moved from an evening kickoff to noon because of Hurricane Irma, which is on course to hit Florida this weekend.
Linebacker coach Matt Feeney embraces Tae Davis (19) before the game. The University of Chattanooga Mocs met the Jacksonville State Gamecocks in the Guardian Credit Union FCS Kickoff at the Carmton Bowl in Montgomery, Alabama on August 26, 2017. There will be a watch party for the UTC-LSU game at Pin Strikes, with football raffles and drink specials, along with bowling and arcade games.
