Chattanooga Mocs at Furman Paladins
· NCAA - Football
Artopoeus throws, runs for scores, Mocs capitalize on 5 Furman turnovers in 41-10 win
Leading 20-3 at halftime, the Mocs (3-3, 2-1 Southern Conference) scored 21 third-quarter points to put the game away. The Mocs took advantage of five Furman turnovers, including four interceptions with Marquise Freeman scoring on a odd 47-yard pick-6, as no one appeared at first to realize he had snagged a blocked pass.
Artopoeus connected with Whatley on a 71-yard score and Freeman followed with his touchdown for a 41-3 lead headed into the final quarter.
Artopoeus was 17 of 25 for 232 yards. Reggie Davis rushed for 93 yards and a touchdown on 22 carries. Whatley had 10 receptions.
Furman (2-4, 1-1) was held to just 12 first downs and 233 total yards.
It was the third time in less than a year the two teams had met. Furman beat Chattanooga to win the Southern title last season and then topped the Mocs in the FCS playoffs.
