Freshman QB Brihm leads Bethune-Cookman to 48-20 rout of Savannah State

DAYTONA BEACH, Florida -- There is little doubt Bethune-Cookman has its deepest team in Brian Jenkins’ five seasons as head coach.

On Saturday, it proved it.

B-CU emptied its bench while rolling up 543 yards of offense in a 48-20 rout at Savannah State.

The 16th-ranked Wildcats didn’t even play starting quarterback Quentin Williams or leading rusher Anthony Jordan.

Redshirt freshman Larry Brihm started under center and passed for 222 yards and three touchdowns, adding 33 yards and a score on the ground before leaving after the first drive of the third quarter.

Reserve running back Danny Dillard led a powerful running game (289 yards) with 87 yards and a score. And the defense held the Tigers to 202 total yards and forced five turnovers, including two interceptions by Thomas Finnie and one by Jameson Wright.
