2015 - BUCS ARRIVE ON NATIONAL SCENE Outright Big South title; No. 7 final ranking that, registering a 33-25 victory over the rival Chanticleers in a game televised nationally on the American Sports Network. The following week, the Bucs cemented a playoff berth with a 28-14 road win at Kennesaw State. Big South first-teamer Anthony Ellis was the star of that game, as the defensive tackle forced a fumble and returned it for a touchdown to headline an exquisite outing. CSU finished off its undefeated run through the FCS slate at Buccaneer Field a week later, gutting out a 31-24 win over rival Liberty. In the playoffs, CSU earned a rematch with The Citadel. CSU made it four in a row over the Bulldogs behind yet another suffocat- ing defensive showing. Powered by Ellis and Big South Freshman of the Year Solomon Brown, CSU held The Citadel to 199 yards rushing and less than four yards per carry. Mike Holloway gave the Bucs all they needed offensively, rushing for 120 yards, including a pair of electrifying second quarter touchdown runs. CSU advanced to the final eight of the national playoffs, earning a date with top-ranked Jacksonville State in a contest televised on ESPN2. The Bucs proved their mettle once again, matching the Charleston Southern explosive Gamecocks score-for-score for much of the night before falling.

The highlights of the campaign were many. CSU capped another stellar September with an impressive road win over eventual Southern Conference co-champion, The Citadel. The Bucs outscored the crosstown rival Bulldogs 27-3 in the second half and 17-0 in the fourth quarter. CSU dominated on both sides of the ball after halftime in erasing a 17-6 deficit, rolling up nearly 500 yards of offense while limited Citadel’s top-ranked rushing attack to 15 yards over the final 30 minutes. CSU’s ‘Blue Swarm’ defense, led by coordinator Chad Staggs, carried that momentum forward with a historic start to Big South play. The Bucs held three consecutive league opponents to less than 150 yards of offense, marking the first time in Big South history a team had done that to even two straight opponents. Powered by its defense, CSU entered its Halloween clash with No. 1 Coastal Carolina with a chance to take control of the conference race.
