Reggie Davis scores go-head touchdown with 43 seconds left and Chattanooga edges ETSU 17-10

JOHNSON CITY, Tenn. (AP) Reggie Davis rushed for 103 yards, including a go-head touchdown with 43 seconds left, and Beni Mwamba ended the game with an interception as Chattanooga edged East Tennessee State 17-10 on Saturday for its fifth straight win in the series.

Six of the last seven games in the series - named the “Rail Rivalry” in 2018 - have been decided by a touchdown or less.

Davis took a handoff in the closing seconds and went up the middle before stretching out at the goal line. The ball was knocked out of his hands and ETSU defensive back Cam Sims recovered it in the end zone for an apparent touchback. The officials reviewed the play and ruled that Davis' knee was down before the ball came out.

Davis responded by going untouched into the end zone on his 25th carry.

ETSU was flagged for a block in the back on the ensuing kickoff to move the ball back to the 10-yard line with 36 seconds left.

Chase Artopoeus was 17 of 34 for 281 yards with one touchdown and one interception for Chattanooga (2-3, 1-1 Southern Conference).

Gino English also had one touchdown and one interception for ETSU (3-3, 1-1).

HURRICANE RELIEF

ETSU and Chattanooga teamed up throughout the week to collect donations to support those impacted by Hurricane Helene. Bins were set up at the entrances of Greene Stadium.
