Even though there were no playoff implications(although the players are HOPING) FAMU demolished rival Bethune Cookman 42-6 in front 59,000+ at the FLorida Citrus Bowl.

GREAT JOB RATTLERS!!!

FAMU blows out B-CU in Classic

The 59,418 fans that showed up at the Florida Citrus Bowl Saturday for the 30th anniversary Florida Classic clash between Florida A&M and Bethune-Cookman came hoping to see 60 minutes of football that lived up to the milestone moment.

Only one side wound up having much to cheer about, though.

Riding the play of freshman quarterback and first-time starter Martin Ukpai, the Rattlers didn't miss a beat playing without injured starter Curtis Pulley as they plowed over the Wildcats 42-6.

The win was the Rattlers' second straight blowout Classic win, following a 58-35 victory last season.

It also kept alive FAMU's hopes of getting an at-large bid to the Division I-AA tournament. Those aspirations had taken big hit after a 25-0 loss to struggling Hampton last week.

But whether the Rattlers' get a postseason invite or not, the season will go down as a successful one for second-yard coach Joe Taylor, who is now 17-6 since taking over the program in 2008.
