Bethune-Cookman earns 1st Football Bowl Subdivision win

MIAMI, Florida  -- Bethune-Cookman did not celebrate like it had just beaten a team in the NCAA's premier classification. And Florida International didn't really look like it belonged in the Football Bowl Subdivision.

But B-CU's 34-13 win over the Panthers on Saturday will still go down as a milestone victory in the Wildcats' football history.

They beat one of the big boys.

B-CU (3-0), which will play at Florida State, another FBS team, next Saturday, ran over the struggling Panthers (0-3). The Wildcats gained 311 yards on the ground, including a career-high 150 by Anthony Jordan. They held FIU to 229 yards and forced two turnovers inside their 10 in the fourth quarter.
