With a 29-10 victory over rival Florida A&M University last Saturday in the Florida Blue Florida Classic in Orlando, the Bethune-Cookman University Wildcats are on to their next conquest. The Wildcats take on Coastal Carolina University on Nov. 30 in South Carolina.

The Wildcats earned an automatic bid to the FCS (Football Championship Subdivision) playoffs. The local team won its second consecutive Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference (MEAC) title last weekend in a bout against the Rattlers at the Citrus Bowl in Orlando.
