With as many as 41 freshmen and redshirt freshman and playing at Tennessee State, Oklahoma, and Delaware State for three of the first four games, you knew it would take something special to come out on top. Defeating Hampton in the third game of the season was somewhat of a reprieve followed by a win against a decent Delaware State team in Delaware. At that point in the season we were looking to just “keep hope alive.” Depending on what happens in Orlando today, the Delaware State win and the most recent win against North Carolina Central, a team that is relatively new to Division 1 football, may be FAMU’s biggest wins of the 2012 season.
There were fewer fans in the stands for the FAMU homecoming than there were for the first three games where fans showed up in abundance. It was not that people protested homecoming and I’m not sure how much of it was for lack of a band or plain old disappointment over previous game results. The only difference I can see between homecoming and the first three home games is the price of admission. According to witnesses there were a whole lot of people at the shopping malls. I can say first hand that there were a lot of people participating outside the stadium too.
