Affirming that well coached teams improve weekly, the Bronco’s victory over the Kansas City gave inspiration that the Fins had a really great chance of defeating the Chiefs based on our game against Denver.

     The Florida Memorial Lions (6-3, 5-1 Sun) kept their hopes of an NAIA Sun Conference title with a 37-24 win over the upstart Thomas University Nighthawks at Memorial Stadium in Thomasville, GA.  From the first drive the Lions would display their offensive explosiveness ending with a Cedquan Smith hit Michael Cabelle for a 6-yard touchdown for an early 7-0 start.

      The defense and special teams lifted the Bethune-Cookman University Wildcats to a 20-7 win over the Mississippi Valley State Delta Devils in front of 4,380 fans in a nationally televised game on ESPNU at Daytona Beach Municipal Stadium on Thursday, Nov. 2.

The final score, 31-17, shouldn’t mislead anyone. In defeating division and conference rival New England for the second time this season, the Fins conquered a determined, proud and improved football team riding the waves of an upset victory over the Buffalo Bills, the pre-season favorite to win the division, the same Bills that pulverized our Dolphins earlier in the year.
