NORFOLK, Va. -- Bethune-Cookman's trip to Norfolk was supposed to be uneventful.
The Wildcats were supposed to come to town, say hello to former B-CC defensive coordinator and current NSU coach Pete Adrian and be on their merry way back to Florida with an easy victory.
What Bethune-Cookman got instead was an incredible strap-yourself-in, roller-coaster ride for four overtimes. The Wildcats held on just long enough to escape with a 63-61 victory over Norfolk State in front of raucous crowd of 7,428 at Dick Price Stadium.

ATLANTA - Florida A&M and Tennessee State didn't light up the scoreboard in their previous two meetings, but they produced enough thrilling plays to keep people in their seats long after the bands had performed their halftime shows.
Saturday's Atlanta Football Classic was no different as once again big plays led to a thrilling ending, as well as another win for the Rattlers, who defeated the Tigers 12-7 in front of 56,297 fans in the Georgia Dome.
