Bethune-Cookman rolls past Howard, 27-6

WASHINGTON, D.C.  -- Early in the week, Howard coach Ray Petty said he was concerned about Bethune-Cookman's depth at quarterback and running back.
 
On Saturday, the Wildcats showed why.
 
Three B-CU quarterbacks combined to pass for a Wildcats' season-high 272 yards and three running backs scored touchdowns as the Wildcats defeated the Bison 27-6 at Greene Memorial Stadium in Washington, D.C.
 
“We're going to do what we have to do to win, and it just so happens we used all three (quarterbacks), and we came away with the victory,'' B-CU coach Brian Jenkins said.
 
The Wildcats, ranked 13th in the latest FCS coaches' poll and 16th in The Sports Network poll, improved to 5-1, 2-0 in the Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference.
 
They rolled up a season-high 480 yards, while holding the top offense in the conference to 186 yards in winning their 15th straight conference game.
