University of Tennessee at Chattanooga coach Russ Huesman spoke about the Mocs’ huge game Saturday at No. 9 Wofford, the playoffs and more during his weekly media luncheon Wednesday.
Here’s some of what he had to say:
On the Terriers’ defense, which leads the Southern Conference in yards allowed …
I think the one thing that gets overlooked with them is how well they play defense. They’re really good, fifth in the [FCS] in total defense now, leading our league. They play really good defense; they’re well coached, they’re disciplined, they use their hands well.
Everybody always wants to talk about their offense, and their offense is really good. When you’re leading the country in rushing, obviously you’re doing something right.
