DAYTONA BEACH, FL -- Bethune-Cookman coach Alvin Wyatt knew Saturday's contest against conference cellar-dweller Howard had all the makings of a trap game. After the Wildcats produced just 37 yards of offense in the first half, he knew his worst fears had materialized. But thanks to quarterback McKinson Souverain's 53-yard touchdown run with 7:19 left and Howard's failed 2-point conversion attempt with one minute left to play, B-CU escaped with a 14-12 victory in front of 3,152 fans at Municipal Stadium.
The Wildcats (8-2, 5-2 Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference) play their final game of the season next week against arch-rival Florida A&M at the Florida Classic in Orlando. "When the Classic is right in front of you, you can't help but look at that," Wyatt said. "I have to stop myself from doing it sometimes. Plus you don't want to show this play or that play (for Florida A&M to prepare for), and it catches up to you." The difference in the game was Travis Roland's blocked extra point early in the fourth quarter.
