ATLANTA - Oh sure, Philip Sylvester starred again for the Rattlers. But there were a few other unsung heroes in Saturday's dramatic 18-17 victory for Florida A&M in Saturday's Atlanta Classic at the Georgia Dome.

Freshman cornerback Qier Hall topped the list. His 83-yard punt return for a third-quarter touchdown gave the Rattlers a lift that had been missing most of the afternoon.

Our OC and DC are kinda supect...they made some silly calls inside the redzone on more than one occasion.

True! TSU couldnt stop #30 from running the ball but instead odd keep pounding the football, FAMU went to the air.............bad move. The QB did more running around than he did passing. And the double reverse pass was a terrible play callxsmhx
