CHATTANOOGA—The Chattanooga Mocs revealed the 2023 football schedule Monday. There are 11 games on tap with a return to SEC play included as well as two regional non-conference matchups balanced by the 8-game Southern Conference slate.
Labor Day weekend sees the Mocs open at North Alabama. This is the third leg of a 4-game series with the Lions which saw wins for the good guys in 2021 and 2022.
Kennesaw State is the home opener a week later. Approximately 95 miles separate the two stadiums in what is the first of two meetings scheduled between the programs. It’s poised to be a highlighted national matchup with both the Mocs and Owls consistently in the rankings over the past few years.
The Mocs spend the next eight weeks in SoCon play starting with The Citadel in Finley Stadium. Back-to-back road trips follow to Samford and Wofford before rotating home and away the next five weeks with Western Carolina, at Mercer, ETSU, at VMI and Furman.
The off week hits in week 11 before a trip to Alabama.
