JOHNSON CITY, Tenn. (WJHL) — ETSU football got back in the win column Saturday, but head coach Will Healy knows there is still plenty to clean up as the Buccaneers prepare for their first road test of the season.
The Bucs evened their record at 1-1 with a 48-14 win over Tusculum, finishing with 259 passing yards and 225 yards on the ground. Freshman quarterback Mason Mims completed 13 of 21 passes, while running back TJ Peyton rushed for a career-high 121 yards and two touchdowns on 11 carries.
Despite the lopsided victory, Healy said lapses in execution remain a concern.
"We have explosive ability in all three phases, but we are not near consistent enough," Healy said. "We have mental lapses that are going to get us beat, lapses that got us beat a week ago."
That Week 1 loss to Campbell left a "bitter taste" for the Bucs, according to linebacker Jarvis Johnson. ETSU responded by putting an emphasis on discipline and preparation against Tusculum.
