We got the homecoming crowd cheering and Marching Wildcats playing. We got the aforementioned Jimmie Robinson. That’s awesome right? We got 3 time MEAC player of the week Arkevious Williams at QB. Trailing by a touchdown and 2 point conversion with less than 2 minutes to play, Bethune took over possession at their own 38 yardline. Perhaps the most disappointing and telling sign of how the night went was highlighted on the last drive. Blame that analysis on head coach Terry Sims speaking to the media after the defeat. There was the blocked field goal, missed extra point, missed tackles, dropped passes, questionable play calling, failure to convert a 1st and goal into points….I’m exhausted thinking about all of the missed opportunities. Head-scratching at yielding a first down and eventually a touchdown after allowing SCSU to convert a fake punt on 4th and 17. Frustration at surrendering 276 rushing yards while only rushing for 59. The Cats entered the contest on a 5 game winning streak yet the air in the stadium was filled with frustration and head-scratching by game’s end.įrustration that the team’s most dynamic player, All-American Jimmie Robinson, only had one offensive touch the entire contest. The frustration for Wildcat fans lie not in losing Saturday’s contest but in how the team performed. SCSU owns more MEAC championship crowns than any other school with 16 and Coach Pough is the winningest coach is Bulldog history. Losing to a Buddy Pough coached squad is nothing to be ashamed of. Yeah, I know that’s more than one word but let me have my moment. If I had to give you one word to describe the loss it would be… frustrating… disappointing… head-scratching…soul-searching. That was Coach Alvin “Shine” Wyatt’s last season in charge. Saturday’s 27-19 homecoming loss was the first since losing to Winston-Salem State in 2009. The #WHOE crowd left it all in streets of Daytona yet somehow our beloved Wildcats came up short in the actual game. The old-heads were decked out in their best “short sets” and leopard print. Freaking homecoming bro.Įverything was set up so perfectly.
