HUNTSVILLE, Ala. –Stefon McCray rushed for a career-high 192 yards and two touchdowns and Khadarel Hodge caught a career-high 158 yards and a touchdown as the Prairie View A&M University football team pulled away from Alabama A&M 41-20 Saturday night at Louis Crews Stadium.
The Panthers (2-1 overall, 2-0 SWAC) gained a season-high 543 yards total offense in posting 2016 season bests in rushing yards (281), passing yards (262) and points (41) in winning their eight consecutive Southwestern Athletic Conference game dating to last season.
"The running game is the staple of our offense," PVAMU head coach Willie Simmons said. "If we can get the ground game going, it opens up the offense so much more. We challenged the offensive line and the running backs this week in practice to get the ground game going. They accepted the challenge and we had a pretty good night running the football."
The defense recorded a season-high eight sacks and forced two takeaways as the Bulldogs were shutout in the decisive fourth quarter. DeVohn Reed and Steven Guillory each had two sacks and Terrence Singleton had an interception for the Panthers.
