The University of Tennessee at Chattanooga football team improved to 3-3 this season, including 2-1 in the Southern Conference, with Saturday’s 21-16 win over 10th-ranked and previously unbeaten East Tennessee State University at Finley Stadium.
What were already standout performances by two UTC players got a little bit better numerically on Sunday, when the program released updated statistics that credited Devonnsha Maxwell with five sacks instead of 4.5 and Tyrell Price with an additional 4-yard carry, giving him the fifth 100-yard rushing performance of his Mocs career.
The Mocs’ next game is against Samford (3-3, 2-2) at 1 p.m. Eastern on Saturday at Seibert Stadium in Birmingham, Alabama.
Here are three next-day takeaways from the win against the rival Buccaneers.
Good Mocs show up: The Mocs have struggled with consistency from game to game, and in some cases from half to half or even possession to possession. Against ETSU, they avoided the lapses that led to losses versus Virginia Military Institute in overtime the week before and versus Austin Peay in the season opener.
