Wildcats survive Rattlers in Classic

By Andreas Butler

From the Florida Courier

       Isidore Jackson had 118 total yards with a touchdown and Quentin Williams had 206 total yards to lead Bethune-Cookman(BC-U) past Florida A&M 21-16 in the Florida Classic. The Wildcats (9-2, 7-0) finish the season unbeaten in the MEAC for the first time since 1984 and 8-0 in the conference for the first time.

            FAMU (4-7, 4-4) was threatening late but Damien Fleming was sacked by Harold Love and fumbled, giving B-CU the ball back with just over a minute left. Fleming did throw for 166 yards with a score for the Rattlers.
