Tallahassee, FL - The Florida A&M University Rattlers had another good season in 2010.
FAMU finished on a six-game winning streak. The Rattlers ruined archrival Bethune-Cookman’s bid for an undefeated season by beating them in the Florida Classic. FAMU claimed a share of the MEAC title but missed the FCS playoffs. Can this year’s squad do better?
Theme for Rattler Football Animation, with pictures from Rattler Booster Friday Night Strikes - pep rally. Held the Friday before every home football game at Bragg Stadium parking lot starting at 6 pm with special appearances by Coach Taylor and the football team, the Marching 100, junior cheerleaders and the FAMU cheerleaders.
