Bethune-Cookman plays its fifth road game of the season and sixth away from home when the Wildcats face Prairie View A&M Saturday.

The Wildcats had a "home" game in Jacksonville two weeks ago, but have not played in Daytona Beach since beating Grambling Sept. 24. B-CU returns home Nov. 5 for homecoming against Alabama State.

With the campus closed after sustaining significant damage from Hurricane Ian, the Wildcats have made Huntsville, Ala. , Nashville, Tenn. and Jacksonville for three weeks. The campus was reopened on October 17.

A loss at PVAMU would clinch a second straight losing season for the Wildcats for the first time since 2006-2007 under Alvin Wyatt Sr. B-CU had three consecutive winning seasons and nine of the last 10 before last year's 2-9 record.

The Panthers won last year's game in Daytona Beach 35-29, , capitalizing on a blocked field goal for a touchdown and a pick. The setback spoiled a 176-yard rushing effort from B-CU's Que-
Shaun Byrd. B-CU won the first meeting in the series 63-14 in the 2011 MEAC/SWAC Challenge in Orlando.
