This Week in 1973: Cats Blank Morris Brown

Bethune-Cookman rides Allen to win

It was exactly 50 years ago this week that Bethune-Cookman Football returned to action after a bye week, registering a road victory courtesy a 26-0 shutout of Morris Brown.
 
Wayne Allen rushed for 117 yards and scored two touchdowns, one on the ground and one on a short pass from Willie Collins, who also threw a touchdown to Otis Evans as the Wildcats took a 21-0 lead into the locker room at the half.
 
A safety and an Earnest Renfroe field goal were all the Wildcats needed as the defense held the Wolverines to 183 total yards for the contest.
 
The win set the stage for a big matchup with Southern Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (SIAC) foe Alabama A&M the following week.
