FAMU coach Alex Wood: ‘Disappointed’ Rattlers still playing with pride

TALLAHASSEE, Florida -- Florida A&M football coach Alex Wood frequently fields questions about the morale of his 0-6 football team.

That didn’t change Tuesday during his weekly press conference, where he said he’s sure everyone on the Rattlers is experiencing “some level of disappointment.”

The Rattlers are 0-6 for the first time in program history. Last year’s 0-5 start broke the previous record for losses to start a season, which was set in 1984 when the Rattlers opened 0-4 and ended 3-7-1.

Wood said the disappointment stems from the Rattlers being unable to finish the year (there are five games remaining) with a winning record.

They are at home Saturday against Delaware State for homecoming.
