Mocs Earn 8th Seed Nationally In FCS Playoffs
A perfect 7-0 SoCon run and 9 straight FCS victories did enough to sway the playoff selection committee. UTC was awarded an 8th seed when the bracket was unveiled this morning.
The national seed means the Mocs receive a first round bye, and a home playoff game in Round 2. UTC will face the winner of Eastern Kentucky and Indiana State’s first round match up. UTC Head Coach Russ Huesman has a 2-0 record against EKU, scoring back to back wins over the Colonels in 2010 (42-24) and 2011 (23-14). The Mocs have never faced Indiana St. The second round game at Finley Stadium is slated for December 6th at 1pm. The Mocs are 20-9 all time at Finley under Huesman, winners of 10 of their last 12 at home.
